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

Newborns are particularly vulnerable to nosocomial infection, but the underlying mechanisms are incompletely understood. Age-dependent differences in the expression of innate immune receptors and thus a reduced or delayed antimicrobial host response might contribute. Here we discovered that neonatal cord blood monocytes (CBMo) express lower levels of Toll-like receptor TLR8 but similar levels of TLR7 as compared to adult peripheral blood monocytes (PBMo). We investigated the TLR7/8 signal transduction by stimulating monocytes of adults (PBMo) and neonates (CBMo) with imiquimod (R
