Review in Springer seminars in immunopathology, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.

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

Atopic diseases are characterized by Th2 and IgE responses to common environmental and food antigens. In vivo, IgE production depends on interactions between allergen-specific B lymphocytes and Th2 lymphocytes. IgE levels are extremely low in normal individuals, suggesting that IgE production is under strong regulation. One of the reasons behind the lack of atopy in healthy individuals is the activity of regulatory T cells, which prevent naïve T helper cell precursors from acquiring a differentiated Th2 phenotype. In addition to naturally occurring regulatory T cells, atopy can be prevented by allergen-specific tolerant/regulatory cells induced through mucosal stimulation, and by mechanisms that directly suppress Iepsilon sterile transcript production on activated B lymphocytes. This article reviews the recent progress on thymic-derived as well as peripherally induced regulatory T cells as they relate to atopy. The latter discussion also includes regulatory T cells that arise through immunotherapy.
