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

Following skin sensitization epidermal Langerhans' cells (LC), many of which bear antigen, are stimulated to migrate from the skin and traffic via afferent lymphatics to lymph nodes draining the site of exposure. It has been proposed previously that tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), a keratinocyte-derived epidermal cytokine (the expression of which is augmented following cutaneous sensitization), provides one signal for LC migration. In the experiments described here the influence of systemically administered neutralizing anti-TNF-alpha antibody on dendritic cell (DC) accumulation in draining lymph nodes has been investigated. Treatment with anti-TNF-alpha inhibited markedly the frequency of DC in draining nodes measured 18 hr following exposure to the skin allergens oxazolone and fluorescein isothiocyanate or to the non-sensitizing skin irritant sodium lauryl sulphate. Similar treatment with anti-TNF-alpha 2 hr prior to primary exposure to oxazolone impaired significantly the efficiency of skin sensitization measured 5 days later as a function of challenge-induced increases in ear thickness. The same antibody administered 18 hr following initial exposure to oxazolone was without effect on skin sensitization. These data confirm the importance of TNF-alpha for the migration of LC from the skin to draining lymph nodes and demonstrate that this cytokine is required for optimal contact sensitization.
