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

Anti-double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) B cells persist even in nonautoimmune- prone animals. In this review, we summarize data regarding the activation potential of these cells. Provision of cognate CD4 T cell help to anti-dsDNA B cells in nonautoimmune mice not only drives their maturation and entry into the B cell follicle, but also leads to secretion of anti-dsDNA autoantibodies. Intriguingly, if T regulatory cells are provided along with T helper cells, the antibody response of anti-dsDNA B cells is diminished. We have also found that T-independent stimulation with CpG oligodeoxynucleotides leads to the proliferation and enhanced recovery of antidsDNA B cells in vitro. These data suggest that control of anti-dsDNA antibody production may rely on elements from both the innate and adaptive arms of the immune system.
