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

IL-4 and IFN-gamma positively and negatively regulate allergic inflammation. To determine the regulatory mechanisms of eosinopoiesis by cytokines, we examined the effect of recombinant IL-4 and IFN-gamma and of anti-IL-4 and anti-IFN-gamma antibodies on IL-3- and IL-5-induced eosinophil differentiation from human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cells. rhIL-4 (10-300 U/ml) inhibited IL-3- and IL-5-induced eosinophil differentiation from cord blood mononuclear cells on day 28 of culture by 62-81% in a concentration-dependent manner. rhIFN-gamma (5-500 U/ml) also inhibited IL-3- and IL-5-induced eosinophil differentiation by 80-99% in a concentration-dependent manner. The inhibitory effect of rhIL-4 and rhIFN-gamma was observed only when rhIL-4 or rhIFN-gamma were present in the culture from day 0 to day 14, but not from day 15 to day 28. Addition of anti-IL-4 antibody to the culture enhanced IL-3- and IL-5-induced eosinophil differentiation on day 28 of culture by 30%, whereas anti-IL-2 MoAb and anti-IFN-gamma MoAb had no significant effect. These results indicate that IL-4 and IFN-gamma have inhibitory effects on IL-3- and IL-5-induced eosinophil differentiation from its progenitor cells.
