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

This is a summary of recent developments regarding the role of the lymphatic system in immune responses. Emphasis is on physiological considerations from experiments in sheep. Cell- and tissue-specific lymphocyte traffic patterns measured over several days are considered. Particular attention is given to recent data on the relationship between the central nervous system and the lymphatic system, to cell labeling in situ, and to the entry of immune cells into afferent lymph from the interstitial tissues.
