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

Although ESAT-6 was originally identified as a strong T cell immunogen in short-term culture filtrate of Mtb, and has therefore been a candidate vaccine antigen for many years, recent work has demonstrated that ESAT-6 is also a virulence factor that mediates pathogenicity of Mtb. The studies described in this review suggest that ESAT-6 secreted by Mtb subverts host immunity by manipulating intracellular signaling pathways in macrophages and T cells, which are critical in protection against Mtb. Furthermore, ESAT-6 elicits pro-inflammatory responses that can be detrimental to the host. Understanding the molecular mechanisms through which ESAT-6 inhibits immunity will permit design of ESAT-6-based vaccine constructs that elicit protective immune responses with minimal negative effects.
