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

The proportions of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), CD4(+) T cells, and CD8(+) T cells that produce gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) in response to Mycobacterium tuberculosis were markedly reduced in tuberculosis patients, particularly in those with severe disease. Depletion of CD4(+) but not CD8(+) cells prior to stimulation of PBMC with M. tuberculosis abolished IFN-gamma production. These results show that (i) IFN-gamma production by CD8(+) and CD4(+) cells correlates with the clinical manifestations of M. tuberculosis infection and (ii) IFN-gamma production by CD8(+) cells depends on CD4(+) cells.
