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

Human anti-glomerular basement membrane (GBM) disease strongly associates with HLA-DRB1*15:01. The target autoantigen in this disease is the noncollagenous domain of the α3 chain of type IV collagen, α3(IV)NC1, but critical early T cell epitopes presented by this human MHC class II molecule are unknown. Here, by immunizing HLA-DRB1*15:01 transgenic mice with whole recombinant α3(IV)NC1 and with overlapping α3(IV)NC1 peptides, we defined a HLA-DRB1*15:01-restricted α3(IV)NC1 T cell epitope (α3136-146) with four critical residues. This peptide was not immunogenic in HLA-DRB1*01:01 transgenic or C57BL/6 mice. The T cell epitope is naturally processed from α3(IV)NC1. CD4(+) T cell clones, generated from HLA-DRB1*15:01 transgenic mice and specific for α3136-146, transferred disease into naive HLA-DRB1*15:01 transgenic mice, evidenced by the development of necrotizing crescentic GN, albuminuria, renal impairment, and accumulation of CD4(+) T cells and macrophages in glomeruli. Because Fcγ receptors are implicated in disease susceptibility, we crossed HLA transgenic mice onto an FcγRIIb-deficient background. Immunization with either α3136-146 or α3(IV)NC1 induced GN in HLA-DRB1*15:01 transgenic FcγRIIb-deficient mice, but HLA-DRB1*01:01 transgenic FcγRIIb-deficient mice were unaffected. Taken together, these results demonstrate that the HLA-DRB1*15:01-restricted T cell epitope α3136-146 can induce T cell responses and injury in anti-GBM GN.
