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. The antiinflammatory actions of glucocorticoid steroids are thought to occur through induction of the protein lipocortin-1 (LC-1; annexin-1). The purpose of the current study was to investigate whether astrocytic LC-1 content was increased in the presence of a synthetic glucocorticoid, dexamethasone. 2. Steroid-induced changes in cellular levels of LC-1 in astrocytes were determined by electrotransfer and immunoblotting techniques. Separate cell fractions were investigated to study the influence of dexamethasone on astroglial LC-1 content. The effect of culture state on LC-1 expression was also examined. 3. Intracellular LC-1 content was found to decrease after initiation of culture, with a substantial rise in both cell proliferation and LC-1 expression occurring after the replenishment of medium containing steroid-free serum. A further increase in intracellular LC-1 occurred upon incubation with dexamethasone. The glucocorticoid-induced change in intracellular LC-1 was a time-dependent event and coincided with an increase in membrane-associated LC-1. 4. The findings in this study indicate that astrocytic LC-1 content is influenced by cell culture conditions and, in the presence of glucocorticoid steroids, the cellular localization of LC-1 is altered. This may indicate that LC-1 has functions at more than one cellular locality.
