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

backgroundIntraepithelial lymphocytes (IEL) are a heterogeneous population of lymphocytes raised in celiac disease (CD), whose role in CD pathogenesis remains to be defined.

aimsTo investigate how the age of diagnosis, diet, and the severity of the histological lesions are related to the changes observed in unconventional IEL populations.

methodsProspective analysis of 101 confirmed celiac patients from a single center, including 66 at diagnosis (45 children, 21 adults) and 112 non-celiac controls (12 children, 100 adults). IEL from duodenal biopsies were studied by six-color flow cytometry. The results were analyzed in relationship with age, diet (gluten intake), and histopathology (Marsh type).

resultsIn comparison with respective age controls, both children and adult patients showed duodenal intraepithelial lymphocytosis with significant differences in every single non-conventional IEL population: CD3+ TCR γδ, NK (CD3-, CD16+, CD56+), NKT (CD3+, CD161+, CD56+), and iNKT (CD3+ Vα24) (P < 0.001 for all). Gluten intake was not only directly associated with severe atrophy, but also with decreased percentages of NK (P = 0.02), NKT (P = 0.003), and iNKT (P = 0.03). Changes in iNKT and γδ IEL were more marked in celiac children compared with celiac adults (P = 0.02 and 0.01, respectively). In contrast, increased CD3+ TCR γδ were diet- and Marsh grade-independent.

conclusionsThe typical phenotypical profile of intraepithelial lymphocytosis in untreated pediatric and adult celiacs consists of increased CD3+ TCR γδ populations with decreased NK, NKT, and iNKT cells. NK, NKT, and iNKT IEL, but not γδ IEL, are dynamic populations associated with diet, age, and histopathology.
