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

To monitor antigen-specific CD4+ T cells during a recall immune response to tetanus toxoid (TT), a sequential analysis including ex vivo phenotyping and cytokine flow cytometry, followed by cloning and T-cell-receptor (TCR) spectratyping of cytokine-positive CD4+ T cells, was performed. Grossly, twice as many TT-specific CD4+ T-cell clones, ex vivo derived from the CCR7+/- CD69+ interleukin-2-positive (IL-2+) CD4+ subsets, belonged to the central memory (T(CM); CD62L+ CD27+ CCR7+) compared to the effector memory population (T(EM); CD62L- CD27- CCR7-). After the boost, a predominant expansion of the T(CM) population was observed with more limited variations of the T(EM) population. TCR beta-chain-variable region (BV) spectratyping and sequencing confirmed a large concordance between most frequently expressed BV TCR-CDR3 from ex vivo-sorted CCR7+/- CD69+ IL-2+ CD4+ subsets and BV usage of in vitro-derived TT-specific CD4+ T-cell clones, further demonstrating the highly polyclonal but stable character of the specific recall response to TT. Taken together, ex vivo flow cytometry analysis focused on the CCR7+/- CD69+ IL-2+ CD4+ subsets appears to target the bulk of antigen-specific T cells and to reach an analytical power sufficient to adequately delineate in field trials the profile of the antigen-specific response to vaccine.
