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

10 consecutive patients with HSV-associated chronic oral lesions were treated with Egiferon for ten days. There were a statistically significant increase in the Large Granule Lymphocyte (LGL) counts and the number of spontaneous E rosette forming cells by the end of the treatment period. Interferon alpha brought about a preferential expression of CD8, CD11b, CD14, CD25 and CD45RO cell surface molecules without any effect on the expression of CD2, CD3, CD4, CD20 and HLA-DR.
