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

In the killer lymphocyte, the targeted delivery of perforin- and granzyme-containing cytotoxic granules to the immunological synapse is crucial for the eradication of pathogen-infected or transformed targets. This process is achieved through a tightly controlled and highly efficient granule exocytosis pathway. Mutations in the granule trafficking proteins Munc13-4, syntaxin 11, Munc18-2 or Rab27 leads to a fatal lapse of immune surveillance and can be manifested as haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis in humans. Elucidation of the role of these proteins in exocytic trafficking is pivotal for our understanding of their role in health and disease. In this issue of the European Journal of Immunology, D'Orlando et al. [Eur. J. Immunol. 2013. 43: 194-208] make an important step in this direction, as they generate and characterise syntaxin 11 deficient mice. Herein, we discuss the role of syntaxin-11 in soluble NSF (N-ethylmaleimide sensitive fusion) attachment protein receptors complex formation leading to cytotoxic lymphocyte degranulation and its importance in maintaining immune homeostasis.
