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

Migration of leukocytes in the context of immune homeostasis or inflammatory diseases is regulated by activation of chemokine receptors by chemokine ligands. To elucidate how these interactions give rise to cell migration, we mapped the chemokine-stimulated signal transduction network in monocytic THP-1 cells. Global phosphoproteomics revealed 630 time-resolved changes in phosphorylated proteins downstream of the chemokine receptor CCR2. We used the "PHONEMeS" network modeling algorithm to generate the most parsimonious signal transduction network consistent with the observed protein phosphorylation data. The CCR2 signaling network is highly divergent, acting via multiple branches to regulate proteins required for cell migration. We validated this model using kinase inhibitors targeting different branches of the network and successfully blocked chemokine-stimulated cell migration. Thus, chemotaxis is an emergent property resulting from an integrated cellular response to divergent signaling pathways. This paradigm suggests that physiological regulation or pharmacological blockade of chemokine-driven inflammation could potentially be achieved by inhibiting any of the divergent pathways within the network.
