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

Patients with hematological malignancies can be successfully treated with HLA-matched T cell-depleted allogeneic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT) and subsequent donor lymphocyte infusions (DLIs). The efficacy of DLI is mediated by donor T cells recognizing minor histocompatibility antigens (mHags) on malignant recipient cells. Because HLA class II molecules are predominantly expressed on hematopoietic cells, mHag-specific CD4(+) T cells may selectively mediate graft versus leukemia (GvL) reactivity without graft versus host disease (GvHD). In this study, we used a recombinant bacteria cDNA library for the identification of the first autosomal HLA class II (HLA-DQB1*0603)-restricted mHag LB-PI4K2B-1S encoded by the broadly expressed phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase type II beta gene. A polyclonal CD4(+) T cell response against LB-PI4K2B-1S was demonstrated in a patient with relapsed chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) who responded to DLI after HLA-matched alloSCT. LB-PI4K2B-1S-specific CD4(+) T cells recognized and lysed the CD34(+) CML cells of the patient and other leukemic cells as well as high HLA-DQ-expressing normal hematopoietic cells. HLA-DQ expression on normal cells of nonhematopoietic origin was moderately up-regulated by IFN-gamma and not sufficient for T cell recognition. We hypothesize that LB-PI4K2B-1S-specific CD4(+) T cells contributed to the antitumor response by both directly eliminating malignant cells as effector cells and stimulating CD8(+) T cell immunity as helper cells.
