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

CD4(+) T lymphocytes are required to induce spontaneous autoimmune diabetes in the NOD mouse. Since pancreatic β cells upregulate Fas expression upon exposure to pro-inflammatory cytokines, we studied whether the diabetogenic action of CD4(+) T lymphocytes depends on Fas expression on target cells. We assayed the diabetogenic capacity of NOD spleen CD4(+) T lymphocytes when adoptively transferred into a NOD mouse model combining: (i) Fas-deficiency, (ii) FasL-deficiency, and (iii) SCID mutation. We found that CD4(+) T lymphocytes require Fas expression in the recipients' target cells to induce diabetes. IL-1β has been described as a key cytokine involved in Fas upregulation on mouse β cells. We addressed whether CD4(+) T cells require IL-1β to induce diabetes. We also studied spontaneous diabetes onset in NOD/IL-1 converting enzyme-deficient mice, in NOD/IL-1β-deficient mice, and CD4(+) T-cell adoptively transferred diabetes into NOD/SCID IL-1β-deficient mice. Neither IL-1β nor IL-18 are required for either spontaneous or CD4(+) T-cell adoptively transferred diabetes. We conclude that CD4(+) T-cell-mediated β-cell damage in autoimmune diabetes depends on Fas expression, but not on IL-1β unveiling the existing redundancy regarding the cytokines involved in Fas upregulation on NOD β cells in vivo.
