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

The nature of inflammatory signals determines the outcome of T cell responses. However, little is known about how inflammatory cytokines provided to human CD8 T cells during activation affects their susceptibility to post-activation cell death. We have examined and compared the effects of the inflammatory cytokine IL-12, as well as the combination of IL-1, IL-6, and IL-23 (IL-1/6/23) on the susceptibility of primary human CD8 T cells to post-activation cell death. Human CD8 T cells activated in the presence of IL-1/6/23 underwent significantly less cell death after activation as compared with those activated in IL-12. This was due to reduced susceptibility to Fas-mediated activation-induced cell death (AICD). Mechanistically, the reduced level of cell death in CD8 T cells activated in IL-1/6/23 was a result of a low level of FasL expression and high level of c-FLIP(S) expression. When the effect of IL-1, IL-6, and IL-23 individually was examined, IL-1 or IL-6 alone was sufficient to inhibit CD8 T cell death that occurs after activation in IL-12. IL-1, but not IL-6, inhibited expression of FasL, whereas IL-6, but not IL-1, increased c-FLIP(S) expression. Our findings show that the presence of IL-1 and/or IL-6 during activation of human CD8 T cells attenuates Fas-mediated AICD, whereas IL-12 increases the susceptibility of activated CD8 T cells to this form of cell death.
