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

Apoptosis is critical for the development and maintenance of the immune system. The proapoptotic Bcl-2 family member Bim is important for normal immune system homeostasis. Although previous experiments have shown that Bim is critical for the apoptosis of antigen-specific CD8(+) T cells during acute viral infection, the role of Bim during chronic viral infection is unclear. Using lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus clone 13 infection of mice, we demonstrate a role for Bim in CD8(+) T-cell apoptosis during chronic viral infection. Enumeration of antigen-specific CD8(+) T cells by major histocompatibility complex class I tetramer staining revealed that CD8(+) D(b)NP396-404(+) T cells, which undergo extensive deletion in wild-type mice, exhibited almost no decrease in Bim mutant mice. This contrasts with CD8(+) D(b)GP33-41(+) and CD8(+) D(b)GP276-286(+) T cells that underwent similar decreases in numbers in both Bim mutant and wild-type mice. Increased numbers of CD8(+) D(b)NP396-404(+) T cells in Bim mutant mice were due to lack of apoptosis and could not be explained by altered proliferation, differential homing to tissues, or increased help from CD4(+) T cells. When viral titers were examined, high levels were initially observed in both groups, but in Bim mutant mice, clearance from the spleen and sera was slightly accelerated. These experiments demonstrate the critical role of Bim during chronic viral infection to down-regulate CD8(+) T-cell responses and have implications for designing strategies for optimizing immunotherapies during situations where antigen persists, such as chronic infection, autoimmune syndromes, and cancer.
