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

Leukotriene B4 (LTB4) is a product of the 5-lipoxygenase pathway of arachidonic acid metabolism. LTB4 is a potent chemotactic factor for neutrophils and has been postulated to play an important role in a variety of pathological conditions including rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriasis, and inflammatory bowel disease. The role of LTB4 in such diseases has not yet been defined but in this paper we provide direct evidence that LTB4 plays a critical role in a murine model of RA. CP-105,696, (+)-1-(3S,4R)-[3-(4-phenylbenzyl)- 4-hydroxychroman-7-yl]cyclopentane carboxylic acid, is an LTB4 receptor antagonist that inhibits LTB4 binding to human neutrophil membranes with an IC50 of 3.7 nM and inhibits LTB4-induced chemotaxis of these cells with an IC50 of 5.2 nM. CP-105,696 inhibits LTB4-induced neutrophil influx in mouse skin when administered orally with an ED50 of 4.2 mg/kg. CP-105,696 had a dramatic effect on both the clinical symptoms and histological changes of murine collagen-induced arthritis when administered at doses of 0.3-10 mg/kg. Inhibition was not associated with suppression of the humoral immune response to collagen and was equally effective if drug treatment was commenced just prior to the onset of arthritis or throughout the experiment. These results suggest that LTB4 receptor antagonists may be effective therapeutic agents for the treatment of RA.
