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

After the initial observation that human and animal mononuclear phagocytes can be activated into specific killer cells against larvae of the parasite Schistosoma mansoni by seric IgE antibody from infected patients, a possible interaction of IgE with human alveolar macrophages in asthmatic patients was investigated. In vitro, alveolar macrophages from non-atopic individuals can bind monoclonal IgE molecules, as well as IgE antibody from the serum of patients with respiratory allergy. A subsequent contact with anti-IgE antibody or with the specific allergen induces the extracellular release of a variety of mediators, such as lysosomal enzymes, neutral proteases, or superoxide anion. Due to the presence of allergen-specific IgE antibody on the macrophage surface in situ, the same results were obtained in vitro with freshly purified alveolar macrophages from allergic patients. Disodium cromoglycate, corticosteroids, or beta-adrenergic stimulants are strong inhibitors of this specific exocytosis of physiological mediators. The atopic cells formed rosettes with allergen-coated erythrocytes at 4 degrees C, except after pretreatment with aggregated monoclonal IgE or with the allergen.
