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

Invariant CD1d-restricted natural killer T (iNKT) cells function during innate and adaptive immune responses. A functional and numerical deficiency of iNKT cells is well documented in both nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice and humans with autoimmune type 1 diabetes (T1D). Restoring the numerical and/or functional deficiency of iNKT cells in NOD mice by either treatment with alpha-galactosylceramide, transgenic induction of Valpha14-Jalpha18 expression, or transgenic expression of CD1d in NOD islets under the control of the human insulin promoter confers protection from T1D in these mice. Recently, considerable progress has been made in understanding the developmental and functional activities of iNKT cells. In this review, we discuss the role of iNKT cell deficiency and defective development in the onset of T1D in NOD mice and the different protective mechanisms known to restore these defects.
