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 adult T cell leukemia (ATL) often manifest leukemic cell infiltration into various organs such as lung, liver, skin, and gut. To analyze the mechanism of intestinal infiltration of ATL cells, we made mAbs against ATL-43T, a human T cell line derived from an ATL patient with severe intestinal mucosal infiltration. One of the mAbs, named H920, was noted for a high and relatively specific reactivity with ATL-43T. Molecular cloning was done to identify this molecule and disclosed that the Ag molecule was identical to integrin beta 7. Since integrin beta 7 and its ligand MAdCAM-1 had been reported to mediate homing of lymphocytes to endothelial cells in intestinal mucosa, we next examined wither ATL-43T cells could adhere to MAdCAM-1+ cells. Human MAdCAM-1 transfectants of MMCE, a mouse epithelial cell line, were made and used to evaluate cell adhesion mediated by integrin beta 7 and MAdCAM-1. Considerable levels of cell adhesion were observed between ATL-43T and the transfectant cells, which was inhibited by H920 mAb in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, peripheral blood leukemic cells or lymphoma cells from 10 ATL patients were examined for expression of integrin beta 7 with regard to organ involvement. Samples from three patients with gastrointestinal tract involvement showed considerably higher expression of integrin beta 7. These results suggest that integrin beta 7 may play a role in adhesion and subsequent infiltration of a certain type of ATL cells into intestinal mucosa.
