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

Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is an autoimmune subepidermal blistering disease with autoantibodies directed against antigens associated with hemidesmosomes of basal keratinocytes. In addition to autoantibodies and activated complement, cellular mechanisms are crucial for blister formation in this disease. Mononuclear cells, which are the first cells infiltrating BP lesions, mainly belong to CD3, CD4+ T-helper (Th) cells. Elevated concentrations of IL-2, IFN gamma, TNF beta, and IL-5 have been recently demonstrated in BP blister fluid. In this study, we were interested in levels of other Th-type cytokines, including IL-3, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, and GM-CSF in blister fluid of BP. Cytokines were determined by ELISA or bioassay. Levels in the blister fluid from ten BP patients were compared with those in serum samples taken at the time of blister puncture and with those in suction blister fluid of ten healthy volunteers. In blister fluid of BP, we found significantly elevated concentrations of IL-4, IL-6, and IL-10 relative to both concurrent serum samples and suction blister fluid from controls. No differences were detected for either IL-3 or GM-CSF. Our results suggest that IL-4, IL-6, and IL-10 are released at the site of blister formation in BP.
