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

Interleukin-12 (IL-12), a key cytokine in immune regulation, has an important role in activating the cell-mediated immune response in infectious diseases. Recently, a dichotomy between IL-12 and IL-10 regarding progression of a variety diseases has emerged. IL-12 activates type 1 cytokine production and has an antagonistic effect on type 2 cytokines. Here, by using quantitative competitive PCR, we show that peripheral blood mononuclear cells from bovine leukemia virus-infected animals in the alymphocytotic stage of disease express an increased amount of IL-12 p40 mRNA. In contrast, IL-12 p40 mRNA expression by cells from animals with late-stage disease, termed persistent lymphocytosis, was significantly decreased compared to that by normal and alymphocytotic animals. Interestingly, IL-12 p40 mRNA was also detected in tumor-bearing animals. IL-12 p40 expression occurred only in monocytes/macrophages, not B or T lymphocytes. The present study combined with previous findings suggest that IL-12 in bovine leukemia virus-infected animals may regulate production of other cytokines such as gamma interferon and IL-10 and the progression of bovine leukosis in animals that develop more advanced disease such as a persistent lymphocytosis of B cells or B-cell lymphosarcoma.
