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

Phagocytosis is a phylogenetically primitive mechanism adapted by specialized cells of the immune system to ingest particulate pathogens. Recent evidence suggests that the program of specific cytoskeletal rearrangements that underlies phagocytosis may share elements with the antigen receptor signaling pathway in lymphocytes. Tyrosine phosphorylation, necessary for both lymphocyte effector function and phagocytosis, is thought to allow cytoskeletal elements to couple to the intracellular domains of antigen and Fc receptor subunits. We show here that the intracellular domains of the receptors are not inherently required for cytoskeletal coupling. Chimeric transmembrane proteins bearing syk but not src family tyrosine kinase domains are capable of autonomously triggering phagocytosis and redistribution of filamentous actin in COS cells. These responses cannot be initiated by a receptor chimera bearing a point mutation in the syk catalytic domain, and the kinase domain alone is sufficient for initiating cytoskeletal coupling.
