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

Recent studies in cell lines and genetically engineered mice have demonstrated that cytosolic dsDNA could activate dendritic cells (DCs) to become effector APCs. Recognition of DNA might be a major factor in antimicrobial immune responses against cytosolic pathogens and also in human autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus. However, the role of cytosolic dsDNA in human DC activation and its effects on effector T and B cells are still elusive. In this study, we demonstrate that intracellular dsDNA is a potent activator of human monocyte-derived DCs as well as primary DCs. Activation by dsDNA depends on NF-κB activation, partially on the adaptor molecule IFN-promoter stimulator-1 and the novel cytosolic dsDNA receptor IFI16, but not on the previously recognized dsDNA sentinels absent in melanoma 2, DNA-dependent activator of IFN regulatory factor 3, RNA polymerase III, or high-mobility group boxes. More importantly, we report for the first time, to our knowledge, that human dsDNA-activated DCs, rather than LPS- or inflammatory cytokine mixture-activated DCs, represent the most potent inducers of naive CD4(+) T cells to promote Th1-type cytokine production and generate CD4(+) and CD8(+) cytotoxic T cells. dsDNA-DCs, but not LPS- or mixture-activated DCs, induce B cells to produce complement-fixing IgG1 and IgG3 Abs. We propose that cytosolic dsDNA represents a novel, more effective approach to generate DCs to enhance vaccine effectiveness in reprogramming the adaptive immune system to eradicate infectious agents, autoimmunity, allergy, and cancer.
