Prevention of spontaneous immune-mediated diabetes development in the LEW.1AR1-iddm rat by selective CD8+ T cell transfer is associated with a cytokine shift in the pancreas-draining lymph nodes.

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
aims/hypothesisThe LEW.1AR1-iddm rat is an animal model of spontaneous type 1 diabetes mellitus. This study analysed how adoptive transfer of selective T cell subpopulations affects the incidence of diabetes.
methodsCD4(+) or CD8(+) T cells were isolated from diabetic LEW.1AR1-iddm rats or diabetes-resistant LEW.1AR1 rats. Cells were selectively transferred into athymic LEW.1AR1-Whn ( rnu ) or prediabetic LEW.1AR1-iddm rats. The animals were monitored for blood glucose, islet infiltration and immune cell composition of pancreas-draining lymph nodes.
resultsAfter adoptive transfer of CD4(+) T cells from diabetic LEW.1AR1-iddm rats into athymic LEW.1AR1-Whn ( rnu ) rats, 50% of the recipients developed diabetes. Transfer of CD8(+) T cells failed to induce diabetes. Only 10% of the athymic recipients became diabetic after co-transfer of CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells. Adoptive transfer of CD8(+) T cells from LEW.1AR1 or diabetic LEW.1AR1-iddm rats into prediabetic LEW.1AR1-iddm rats significantly reduced the incidence of diabetes. In protected normoglycaemic animals regulatory CD8(+)/CD25(+) and CD4(+)/CD25(+) T cell subpopulations that were also FOXP3-positive accumulated in the pancreas-draining lymph nodes. In this lymphatic organ, gene expression of anti-inflammatory cytokines was significantly higher than in diabetic rats. CONCLUSIONS/
interpretationOur results show that adoptive transfer of CD4(+) but not CD8(+) T cells from diabetic LEW.1AR1-iddm rats induced diabetes development. Importantly, CD8(+) T cells from diabetic LEW.1AR1-iddm rats and diabetes-resistant LEW.1AR1 rats provided protection against beta cell destruction. The accumulation of regulatory T cells in the pancreas-draining lymph nodes from protected rats indicates that transferred CD8(+) T cells may have beneficial effects in the control of beta cell autoimmunity.
