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

Langerin/CD207 is expressed by a subset of dendritic cells (DC), the epithelial Langerhans cells. However, langerin is also detected among lymphoid tissue DC. Here, we describe striking differences in langerin-expressing cells between inbred mouse strains. While langerin+ cells are observed in comparable numbers and with comparable phenotypes in the epidermis, two distinct DC subsets bear langerin in peripheral, skin-draining lymph nodes of BALB/c mice (CD11c(high) CD8alpha(high) and CD11c(low) CD8alpha(low)), whereas only the latter subset is present in C57BL/6 mice. The CD11c(high) subset is detected in mesenteric lymph nodes and spleen of BALB/c mice, but is virtually absent from C57BL/6 mice. Similar differences are observed in other mouse strains. CD11c(low) langerin+ cells represent skin-derived Langerhans cells, as demonstrated by their high expression of DEC-205/CD205, maturation markers, and recruitment to skin-draining lymph nodes upon imiquimod-induced inflammation. It will be of interest to determine the role of lymphoid tissue-resident compared to skin-derived langerin+ DC.
