Endothelial cells in allograft rejection.

In one paragraph

Review in Transplantation, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT01327573 (Eculizumab Therapy for Chronic Complement-Mediated Injury in Kidney Transplantation), which is not on this map. Cited by 56 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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.

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.

Abstract

In organ transplantation, blood borne cells and macromolecules (e.g., antibodies) of the host immune system are brought into direct contact with the endothelial cell lining of graft vessels. In this location, graft endothelial cells play several roles in allograft rejection, including the initiation of rejection responses by presentation of alloantigen to circulating T cells; the development of inflammation and thrombosis; and as targets of injury and agents of repair.
