Review in Cellular and molecular life sciences : CMLS, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 73 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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 murine epidermis contains resident T cells that express a canonical γδ TCR and arise from fetal thymic precursors. These cells are termed dendritic epidermal T cells (DETC) and use a TCR that is restricted to the skin in adult animals. DETC produce low levels of cytokines and growth factors that contribute to epidermal homeostasis. Upon activation, DETC can secrete large amounts of inflammatory molecules which participate in the communication between DETC, neighboring keratinocytes and langerhans cells. Chemokines produced by DETC may recruit inflammatory cells to the epidermis. In addition, cell-cell mediated immune responses also appear important for epidermal-T cell communication. Information is provided which supports a crucial role for DETC in inflammation, wound healing, and tumor surveillance.
