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

Molecular cloning of cDNA from gamma/delta T cells has shown that in sheep, the variable domain of the delta chain is chiefly determined by the expression of the TRDV1 subgroup, apparently composed of a large number of genes. There are three other TRDV subgroups, but these include only one gene each. To evaluate the extent and the complexity of the genomic TRDV repertoire, we screened a sheep liver genomic library from a single individual of the Altamurana breed and sheep fibroblast genomic DNA from a single individual of the Gentile di Puglia breed. We identified a total of 22 TRDV1 genes and the TRDV4 gene. A sequence comparison between germline and the rearranged genes indicates that, in sheep, the TRDV repertoire is generated by the VDJ rearrangement of at least 40 distinct TRDV1 genes. All germline TRDV1 genes present a high degree of similarity in their coding as well as in 5' and 3' flanking regions. However, a systematic analysis of the translation products reveals that these genes present a broadly different and specific repertoire in the complementarity-determining regions or recognition loops, allowing us to organize the TRDV genes into sets. We assume that selection processes operating at the level of ligand recognition have shaped the sheep TRDV germline repertoire. A phylogenetic study based on a sequence analysis of the TRDV genes from different mammalian species shows that the diversification level of these genes is higher in artiodactyl species compared to humans and mice.
