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

To investigate the differences in cytokine regulation in vitro as compared to in vivo, we examined the synthesis of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) by peritoneal macrophages in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Mice (CBA/J) were primed with an intraperitoneal injection of complete Freund's adjuvant and after 2 weeks, peritoneal cells were harvested for culture or mice were injected intraperitoneally with LPS for in vivo studies. In ascites fluid, TNF-alpha peaked 1 hour after LPS and returned to baseline levels by 4 hours. In contrast, TNF-alpha in the media reached maximum at 7 hours. Expression of TNF-alpha messenger (m)RNA in vivo was rapid but transient, as levels peaked at 15 minutes and returned to baseline 1 hour after LPS. In contrast, TNF-alpha mRNA in vitro became maximal at 1 hour, but remained elevated to 5 hours after LPS. In vivo, IL-6 in ascites fluid peaked at 2 hours, whereas in vitro, IL-6 continued increasing to 24 hours. In vivo, IL-6 mRNA reached maximum at 30 minutes, but fell below baseline by 1.5 hours after LPS. In contrast, IL-6 mRNA in vitro was sustained at maximal expression between 5 to 9 hours after LPS. These results demonstrate that both TNF-alpha and IL-6 synthesis is more rapid in vivo than in vitro. The rapid kinetics of cytokine expression in vivo must considered when designing strategies to inhibit cytokine action in vivo.
