1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Background: Atopic dermatitis (AD), a prevalent inflammatory skin disease affecting 10%-20% of the population, is linked to the development of asthma through atopic march (AM). This study aims to explore the role of basophils in OVA-induced lung inflammation in the presence of AD-like skin lesions and investigate the potential contribution of thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) in activating basophils. Methods: Mouse AM models were established in C57BL/6 mice using MC903 and OVA epicutaneous sensitization, followed by intranasal OVA challenges. An intraperitoneal OVA-sensitized asthma model was employed as the control group. RNA-Seq analysis was conducted on lung CD45 Results: As in the intraperitoneal sensitization model, AM model also induced eosinophilic lung inflammation in mice, resembling the AM process. The RNA-Seq analysis revealed differential gene expression, with genes related to basophils being prominent in AM model. Increased basophil activation and IL-4 production were observed in OVA epicutaneously sensitized mice. Basophil depletion attenuated the eosinophilic lung inflammation. TSLP levels increased with topical MC903, and TSLPR knockout reduced lung inflammation, suggesting TSLP is involved in basophil activation. Conclusion: Basophils play a crucial role in OVA-induced lung inflammation in the context of AD-like skin lesions, and TSLP appears to drive basophil activation. Understanding these interactions provides insights for potential therapeutic interventions in AM-associated conditions.
