Decreased production of nitric oxide by human neutrophils during septic multiple organ dysfunction syndrome. Comparison with endotoxin and cytokine effects on normal cells.

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.
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
The objective of this study was to determine nitric oxide (NO) and superoxide anion release (O-2) by neutrophils (PMNs) in the septic multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) and to compare them with the response of normal cells to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and cytokines. NO production was measured by the release of nitrites in the medium, its maximal production rate by a modified oxyhemoglobin assay and O-2 by standard methods. Normal cells were incubated with LPS, gamma interferon (IFN-gamma), or tumor necrosis factor (TNF-alpha) alone or in combination. Results showed that PMN release of both NO and O-2 was reduced in septic samples; in contrast, an association of LPS, IFN-gamma, and TNF-alpha promoted maximal NO release by normal cells (40-50%). We conclude that while interaction of normal PMNs with cytokines increases NO and O-2 release, progression of sepsis to a multiple organ dysfunction impairs these responses in both functions.
