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

objectiveCD27, a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor family, has important role in generation of T cell immunity. In this study, association of CD27 expression on mycobacterial antigen-specific CD4+ T cells with pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) was investigated.

methodsMycobacterial antigen-specific CD4+ T cells were identified based on CD154 expression and CD27 expression on antigen-specific CD4 T cells was analyzed by flow cytometry.

resultsCompared with tuberculin-positive controls, patients with bacterial culture-positive pulmonary TB had significantly reduced CD27 expression on antigen-specific CD4 T cells. The persistent active TB patients had much lower percentages of CD27+ antigen-specific CD4 T cells than culture-positive new TB patients (P=0.008) and healthy controls (P=0.005). Logistic regression analysis on frequencies of CD27-expressing antigen-specific CD4 T cells and TB patients' clinical characteristics indicated that low percentage of CD27+ antigen-specific CD4 T cells correlated significantly with persistent active tuberculosis (P=0.002, odds ratio=19.6).

conclusionIt is concluded that frequency of CD27+ antigen-specific CD4 T cells could be used as an immunological marker for persistent active TB.
