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

Patients with allergic asthma exhibit distinct temporal variations in symptoms and disease severity, which oscillate across the 24 h day. We have previously shown that the molecular circadian clock plays a critical role in temporally gating the response to allergen challenge in mice. Club cells, a subset of pulmonary bronchial epithelial cells, are implicated in the gating of time-dependent responses to type-1 inflammatory stimuli and trafficking of neutrophils to the lung. Using a club cell specific Bmal1 knockout mouse (CCSP-Bmal1 KO) we found that this is also true in the setting of chronic type-2 pulmonary inflammation, where eosinophil and T-helper 2 cell trafficking patterns were abolished in mice lacking a functional circadian clock within the lung. Notably, we find that circadian patterns in airway permeability are lost in CCSP-Bmal1 KO mice, rendering the barrier equally permissible to trafficking cells at all times of day.
