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

Peritoneal dialysis effluent (PDE) contains a low-molecular-weight solute that will activate and prime the NADPH oxidase of human neutrophils via a phospholipase A2 (PLA2)-dependent mechanism. Since the products of PLA2 are known to activate and prime the oxidase we have investigated their role in the dialysis effluent-mediated activation and priming of human neutrophils. NADPH oxidase activity of PDE-primed and -unprimed neutrophils was measured by lucigenin-enhanced chemiluminescence in the presence of known inhibitors of the arachidonic acid cascade. Incubation of neutrophils with the nonselective PLA2 inhibitor quinacrine (0 to 100 microM) reduced oxidase activity in both primed and unprimed cells. Furthermore, primed cells were more sensitive to the action of quinacrine than were unprimed cells. We were unable to determine the relative roles of secretory PLA2 (sPLA2) and cytosolic PLA2 (cPLA2) since the selective sPLA2 inhibitor scalaradial (0 to 100 microM) inhibited oxidase activity in both groups of cells by similar degrees, while the specific cPLA2 inhibitor AACO-CF3 (0 to 50 microM) failed to affect activity in either group. Inhibition of platelet-activating factor (PAF), cycloxygenase, and 5-lipoxygenase-activating protein by hexanolamino-PAF (0 to 25 microM), flurbiprofen (0 to 25 microM), and MK886 (0 to 5 microM), respectively, had no effect upon oxidase activity. However, the direct inhibition of 5-lipoxygenase by caffeic acid or lipoxin A4 resulted in a similar concentration-dependent attenuation of oxidase activity in both primed and unprimed cells. Leukotriene B4 (LTB4) release from primed neutrophils was comparable to that from unprimed cells with the exception of phorbol myristate acetate-stimulated cells, which released fivefold more LTB4 than control. Taken together, these results suggest that it is arachidonic acid per se, and not its metabolites, that is important in priming of the neutrophil NADPH oxidase by dialysis effluent.
