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

T cell depletion plus donor bone marrow cell (BMC) infusion induces long-term kidney allograft survival in a limited number of rhesus macaque recipients. Therefore, there is a need to enhance the tolerogenic activity of donor BMCs. The tolerogenic effect of donor BMCs is ascribed to a veto activity, mediated by a CD8+ subset that upregulates immunoregulatory effector molecules, transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta), and FasL, after interaction with donor-reactive cytotoxic T lymphocyte precursors (CTLp), leading to clonal inactivation/deletion of donor-reactive CTLp. Of note, the receptors for TGF-beta1- and FasL-induced signal transduction are upregulated in activated T cells. Since mature dendritic cells (DCs) are exceptionally efficient activators of T cells, we postulated that mature DCs modified to overexpress TGF-beta1 and FasL might exert potent veto (i.e., inactivating/deleting) activity independent of CD8 expression. A fusion protein comprising antihuman CD40 single-chain antibody and soluble coxsackie-adenovirus receptor enabled high-efficiency transduction of rhesus monocyte-derived DCs (Rh MDDCs) by recombinant adenovirus (Ad). Mature Rh MDDCs transduced with Ad encoding active TGF-beta1 retained a mature phenotype yet exhibited potent alloantigen-specific cellular immunosuppression. Such modified MDDCs have the potential to promote tolerance induction to allografts in vivo.
