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 pathogenic role of antineutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibodies (ANCA) remains controversial because of the difficulty in explaining how extracellular ANCA can interact with intracellular primary granule constituents. It has been postulated that cytokine priming of neutrophils (PMN), as may occur during a prodromal infection, is an important trigger for mobilization of granules to the cell surface, where they may interact with ANCA. We show by electron microscopy that apoptosis of unprimed PMN is also associated with the translocation of cytoplasmic granules to the cell surface and alignment just beneath an intact cell membrane. Immunofluorescent microscopy and FACS analysis demonstrate reactivity of ANCA-positive sera and antimyeloperoxidase antibodies with apoptotic PMN, but not with viable PMN. Moreover, we show that apoptotic PMN may be divided into two subsets, based on the presence or absence of granular translocation, and that surface immunogold labeling of myeloperoxidase occurs only in the subset of PMN showing translocation. These results provide a novel mechanism that is independent of priming, by which ANCA may gain access to PMN granule components during ANCA-associated vasculitis.
