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

Intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs) from human intestinal epithelium are memory CD8+ T cells that bind to epithelial cells through human mycosal lymphocyte (HML)-1 and to mesenchymal cells through very late activation antigen-4 (VLA-4). Their binding of extracellular matrix proteins and the mechanism involved were tested. Activated 51Cr-labelled lymphocytes were incubated in protein-coated microwells with various additives. After washing, the adherent cells were detected by radioactivity. The percentages of activated IELs that bound to collagen types I and IV were 20 and 31%, respectively; fewer bound to fibronectin or laminin. Compared to interleukin-2-activated peripheral blood CD8+ T lymphocytes, more IELs bound collagen IV and fewer bound fibronectin. IEL adhesion to collagen (but not fibronectin or laminin) was up-regulated by antibody ligation of CD2 or by protein kinase C stimulation by phorbol ester; staurosporine reduced binding, while herbimycin, phytohaemagglutinin and CD3 ligation had no effect. Antibody-blocking of integrin VLA-1 subunits alpha1 (CD49a) and beta1 (CD18) inhibited adhesion to collagen type I by 82+/-6% and to type IV by 94+/-1% (P<0.001), implicating VLA-1 as the main collagen receptor for IELs. Cell adhesion was dependent on extracellular divalent cations, a characteristic event of VLA-1 never before shown for IELs: manganese and magnesium ions supported binding in a dose-dependent manner; calcium ions inhibited their effectiveness. Therefore, IELs bind collagen through integrin alpha1beta1 after protein kinase C activation. Adhesion is modulated by divalent cations.
