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

Although the importance of native bone marrow and spleen macrophages in enhancing baseline and stress erythropoiesis has been emphasized over several decades, their kinetic and phenotypic changes during a variety of stress responses have been unclear. Furthermore, whether monocyte-derived recruited macrophages can functionally substitute for inadequate or functionally impaired native macrophages has been controversial and seem to be not only tissue- but also stress-type dependent. To provide further insight into these issues, we made detailed observations at baseline and post-erythroid stress (E-stress) in 2 mouse models with genetically depressed macrophage numbers and compared them to their controls. We documented that, irrespective of the stress-induced (hemolytic or post-erythropoietin [Epo]) treatment, only native CD11b(lo) splenic macrophages expand dramatically post-stress in normal mice without significant changes in the monocyte-derived CD11b(hi) subset. The latter remained a minority and did not change post-stress in 2 genetic models lacking either Spi-C or VCAM-1 with impaired native macrophage proliferative expansion. Although CD11b(lo) macrophages in these mice were one-fifth of normal at their peak response, surprisingly, their erythroid response was not compromised and was similar to controls. Thus, despite the prior emphasis on numerical macrophage reliance to provide functional rescue from E-stress, our data highlight the importance of previously described non-macrophage-dependent pathways activated under certain stress conditions to compensate for low macrophage numbers.
