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

Why some viruses establish chronic infections while others do not is poorly understood. One possibility is that the host's immune response is impaired during chronic infections and is unable to clear the virus from the host. In this report, we use a recently proposed framework to estimate the per capita killing efficacy of CD8(+) T cells, specific for the polyoma virus (PyV), which establishes a chronic infection in mice. Surprisingly, the estimated per cell killing efficacy of PyV-specific effector CD8(+) T cells during the acute phase of the infection was very similar to the efficacy of effector CD8(+) T cells specific to lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV-Armstrong), which is cleared from the host. Our results suggest that persistence of PyV does not result from the generation of an inefficient PyV-specific CD8(+) T cell response, and that other host or viral factors are responsible for the ability of PyV to establish chronic infection.
