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

The complement activation product, C5a, may play a key role in the acute inflammatory response. Polyclonal antibody to rat C5a was used to define the requirements for C5a in neutrophil-dependent inflammatory lung injury after systemic activation of complement by cobra venom factor (CVF) or after intrapulmonary deposition of IgG immune complexes. In the CVF model, intravenous infusion (but not intratracheal instillation) of anti-C5a produced a dose-dependent reduction in lung permeability and in lung content of myeloperoxidase. In C6-deficient rats, CVF infusion caused the same level of lung injury (measured by leak of 125I-albumin) as found in C6-sufficient rats. In the IgG immune complex model of lung injury, anti-C5a administered intratracheally (but not intravenously) reduced in a dose-dependent manner both the increase in lung vascular permeability as well as the buildup of lung myeloperoxidase. Treatment with anti-C5a greatly suppressed upregulation of lung vascular intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1). This was correlated with a substantial drop in levels of TNFalpha in bronchoalveolar fluids. These data demonstrate the requirement for C5a in the two models of injury. In the IgG immune complex model, C5a is required for the full production of TNFalpha and the corresponding upregulation of lung vascular ICAM-1.
