Human autoimmune diseases are specific antigen-driven T-cell diseases: identification of the antigens.
Review in Immunologic research, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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
We are investigating the hypothesis that most human autoimmune diseases are specific antigen-driven T-cell diseases. T-cell clones responding to specific antigenic epitopes are responsible for the initiation and/or the propagation of these diseases. Similarly, specific antigen-driven T-cell responses are responsible for the rejection of organ allografts and the immune response to tumors. Activated T cells provide the "engine" for the chronic inflammation that is associated with autoimmune diseases, organ graft rejection and tumor immunity. The best way to identify whether specific antigen-driven T cell responses are involved in the initiation and/or propagation of these disorders is to investigate whether T cells that infiltrate relevant tissues from these diseases contain monoclonal or oligoclonal, that is to say clonally expanded, populations of T cells. Identification of the T-cell antigen receptor (TCR) transcripts employed by the clonally expanded T cells in these patients permits the identification of the specific antigens that elicit these T-cell responses. These antigens may be responsible for the pathogenesis of these diseases. We will summarize here certain of our findings in this area of research.
