Tumor necrosis factor priming of peripheral blood neutrophils from rheumatoid arthritis patients.
Article in Journal of clinical immunology, 1996. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
Recently it was shown that tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) receptors on neutrophils may be down-regulated after stimulation with proinflammatory mediators. Since in rheumatoid arthritis neutrophils are likely to encounter these mediators in the circulation, we tested the hypothesis that rheumatoid arthritis neutrophil TNF receptors are down-regulated. Peripheral blood neutrophils from patients with rheumatoid arthritis and healthy subjects were compared with respect to their TNF binding activity and ability to be primed by TNF. There were no differences between rheumatoid arthritis and control neutrophils in receptor-mediated TNF binding, superoxide release in response to agonist, and TNF priming of this respiratory burst or in the ability to degrade cartilage in vitro and TNF priming for increased cartilage damage. It is evident that rheumatoid arthritis blood neutrophils retain the ability to bind TNF and can be primed by TNF for increased oxygen radical production and augmented cartilage damage. These findings further implicate the role of neutrophils in the pathogenesis of arthritis.
