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

CD40-ligand/CD154 is predominantly expressed on activated CD4 T cells and plays a central role in regulating CD4 T-cell-dependent responses. To define the relative abilities of CD4 T-cell functional subsets in the induction of CD154--specifically FoxP3- effector, versus FoxP3+ regulatory, CD4 T cells--multiple CD4 T cell preparations were isolated from B6 and B6.FoxP3-GFP mice and stimulated in vitro to examine the kinetics of stimulation-dependent CD154 expression. CD154 was induced in 40-60% of total CD4 T cells in various cell preparations. However, despite similar kinetics of CD154-induced expression, the average percentage of CD154 expression among CD4+ FoxP3+ T regulatory (Treg) cells was only about 4-9%. Such differential, stimulation-dependent CD154 induction by total CD4+ T cells versus CD4+ FoxP3+ Treg cells was consistent, despite multiple stimulation conditions utilizing a variety of cell preparations of different composition. Similar induction of CD154 occurred irrespective of whether the CD4+ FoxP3+ Treg cells were first sorted to 98% purity and stimulated in vitro alone, or stimulated as non-purified cells in the presence of CD4+ FoxP3- T effector cells, suggesting that CD154 induction by CD4+ FoxP3+ Treg cells is regulated by cell-intrinsic mechanisms. Differential CD154 induction may be a key factor in determining the distinguishable functions of FoxP3- T-effector, versus FoxP3+ Treg, CD4+ T cells.
