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

Induced regulatory T cells (iT(reg) cells) can be generated by peripheral dendritic cells (DCs) that mediate T cell unresponsiveness to rechallenge with antigen. The molecular factors required for the function of such iT(reg) cells remain unknown. We report a critical role for the transcription cofactor homeodomain-only protein (Hop; also known as Hopx) in iT(reg) cells to mediate T cell unresponsiveness in vivo. Hopx-sufficient iT(reg) cells downregulated expression of the transcription factor AP-1 complex and suppressed other T cells. In the absence of Hopx, iT(reg) cells had high expression of the AP-1 complex, proliferated and failed to mediate T cell unresponsiveness to rechallenge with antigen. Thus, Hopx is required for the function of T(reg) cells induced by DCs and the promotion of DC-mediated T cell unresponsiveness in vivo.
