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

Injury initiates local and systemic host responses and is known to increase CD4 Treg activity in mice and humans. This study uses a TCR transgenic T cell adoptive transfer approach and in vivo Treg depletion to determine specifically the in vivo influence of Tregs on antigen-driven CD4 T cell reactivity following burn injury in mice. We report here that injury in the absence of recipient and donor Tregs promotes high antigen-driven CD4 T cell expansion and increases the level of CD4 T cell reactivity. In contrast, CD4 T cell expansion and reactivity were suppressed significantly in injured Treg-replete mice. In additional experiments, we found that APCs prepared from burn- or sham-injured, Treg-depleted mice displayed significantly higher antigen-presenting activity than APCs prepared from normal mice, suggesting that Tregs may suppress injury responses by controlling the intensity of APC activity. Taken together, these findings demonstrate that Tregs can actively control the in vivo expansion and reactivity of antigen-stimulated, naïve CD4 T cells following severe injury.
