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

We have recently demonstrated that adoptive transfer of regulatory T cell-depleted polyclonal T cells into lymphopenic mice leads to rejection of B16 melanoma, which generated an opportunity to study host requirements for tumor rejection when it effectively occurred. CD8(+) T cell priming and tumor rejection required tumor Ag cross-presentation, as evidenced by tumor outgrowth in Kb(-/-) bone marrow chimeric or B71/2(-/-) mice. CD4(+) T cells were additionally required for optimal tumor control, although not through classical CD4 "help," as the frequency of primed CD8(+) T cells was similar in the absence of CD4(+) T cells, and tumor rejection did not depend upon CD40-CD40L interactions or on IL-2 production by CD4(+) T cells. Rather, CD4(+) T cells appeared to act at the effector phase of tumor rejection and responded to B16-derived Ags in vitro. At the effector phase, IFN-γ production by transferred T cells, but not host cells, was necessary. IFN-γ acted either on host or tumor cells and was associated with reduced tumor vascularity. Finally, tumor rejection occurred after transfer of TNF-α, perforin, or FasL-deficient T cells. However, perforin/FasL double-knockout T cells failed to reject, arguing that the killing of B16 melanoma cells could occur either via the cytotoxic granule or Fas pathways. Collectively, these results support a model in which host tumor Ag cross-presentation primes adoptively transferred T cells, which remain functional in the setting of homeostatic proliferation and regulatory T cell depletion, and which promote tumor rejection via IFN-γ and lysis via cytotoxic granules and/or FasL.
