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

We have sequentially investigated the expression of natural killer cell inhibitory receptors (KIRs) for HLA-C (CD158b) on peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) in three patients with extensive chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (alloBMT). Clinical symptoms of cGVHD were not cured and worsened in the first patient whose CD158b-positive cells increased to 18.5% during cGVHD and decreased to 9.4% at 8 months after transplantation. On the other hand, cGVHD was cured and did not relapse in the second patient whose CD158b-positive cells increased up to 45.9% during cGVHD and sustained 19.4% at 8 months after transplantation. In contrast, CD158b-positive cells were less than 10% during the course of cGVHD in the third patient, and her cGVHD did not respond to treatment. Therefore, it appears that chronic allostimulation augments the expansion of CD158b-positive cells and these expanded CD158b-positive cells may have some role in the control of alloresponse in some patients.
