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

Bone marrow (BM)-derived T-cell progenitors differentiate into CD4 or CD8 single-positive (SP) cells in the thymus. We have previously reported that a single autosomal mutation, thid, causes a defect in the maturation of CD4 SP thymocytes and an abnormality of peripheral helper T cells in the LEC rat. In this study we attempted to identify a gene responsible for the thid mutation. We first performed genetic linkage analysis and mapped the thid locus between Myb and D1Rat392 on Chr 1. In this region we found an approximately 380-kb deletion from intron 3 of the Ptprk gene, which encodes a receptor-like protein tyrosine phosphatase type kappa (RPTPkappa) to intron 1 of the RGD1560849 predicted gene in the LEC rat genome. Reconstitution with syngenic BM cells transduced Ptprk but not the RGD1560849 predicted gene rescued development of CD4 SP cells in the LEC rat thymus. It is confirmed by this result that the Ptprk gene is responsible for the thid mutation in the LEC rat. Our results further suggest that RPTPkappa plays a critical role in the development of CD4 SP cells in the thymus.
