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

Investigation of helper T cell markers in HTLV-1-transformed cell lines demonstrated that HuT-102 has an IL-9-producing Th17 phenotype. We confirmed the vital role of retinoic acid-related orphan receptor C, a Th17 transcription factor, in the expression of IL-17. Interferon regulatory factor 4 (IRF4), a transcription factor overexpressed in all HTLV-1-infected cells, regulated IL-17 and IL-9 concomitantly. We further demonstrated a novel pathway for the regulation of Tax-induced cytokines, IL-9 and IL-6, through TAK1-mediated nuclear accumulation of c-Rel. A microarray analysis for IRF4 knocked down HuT-102 cells showed a significant up-regulation in the set of genes related to Th1, mainly IFN-γ and several transcription factors. T-bet and IRF1, but not STAT1 and IRF9, participated in counteracting the inhibitory effect of IRF4 on the production of IFN-γ. Finally, suppression of both IRF4 and c-Rel resulted in the reduced proliferation. Collectively, these findings indicate that TAK1-c-Rel and IRF4 pathways play distinct roles in the maintenance of IL-9-producing Th17 phenotype of HTLV-1-transformed cells.
