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

Upon Ag encounter, naive T cells undergo extensive Ag-driven proliferation and can differentiate into effector cells. Up to 95% of these cells die leaving a small residual population of T cells that provide protective memory. In this study, we investigated the contribution of the BH3-only family protein Bid in the shutdown of T cell responses after acute and persistent infection. Influenza virus pathogenicity has been proposed to be mediated by a peptide encoded in the basic polymerase (PB1-RF2) acting through Bid. In our experiments, we found that after acute infection with influenza virus, mice lacking Bid had normal expansion and contraction of Ag-specific CD8(+) T cells. However, in chronic γ-herpesvirus infection, Bid-deficient virus-specific CD8(+) T cells expanded normally but failed to contract fully and were maintained at ∼2-fold higher levels. Previously, we have demonstrated that Bim plays a prominent role in T cell shutdown in persistent infection by cooperating with the death receptor Fas, which regulates apoptosis in response to repeated TCR signaling. Bid lies at the nexus of these two signaling pathways, thus we reasoned that Bid and Bim might cooperate in regulation of T cell shutdown in persistent infection. In this study, we observed that the combined loss of Bid and Bim synergistically enhanced the persistence of CD8(+) T cells during γ-herpesvirus infection. Thus, these data uncover a role for Bid in coordinating apoptotic signaling pathways to ensure appropriate shutdown of T cell immune responses in the setting of persistent Ag exposure.
