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

1. Steroid-treated monocyte supernatants cause a dramatic increase in the speed of locomotion of human neutrophils and a significant decrease in their adhesion to protein-coated glass. In contrast, control monocyte supernatants have a smaller effect on the speed of locomotion, but cause a large increase in their adhesiveness. 2. This supernatant activity was produced equally well in the presence or absence of serum after 24 h culture at 37 degrees C with 10(-6) M dexamethasone. 3. The effect of the steroid-treated monocyte supernatants on the speed of locomotion of human peripheral blood neutrophils was not altered by rabbit polyclonal antisera against lipocortins 1-6. 4. Rabbit anti-interleukin-8 antibody which blocked the effect of IL-8 on the speed of locomotion of neutrophils did not antagonize the locomotion stimulating action of steroid-treated monocyte supernatants. 5. The exocellular release of this factor(s) by human mononuclear leucocytes suggests that it may be an in vivo mediator of the anti-inflammatory effect of glucocorticoids.
