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

Cytomegaloviruses (CMVs) establish lifelong infections that are controlled in part by CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells. To promote persistence, CMVs utilize multiple strategies to evade host immunity, including modulation of costimulatory molecules on infected antigen-presenting cells. In humans, CMV-specific memory T cells are characterized by the loss of CD27 expression, which suggests a critical role of the costimulatory receptor-ligand pair CD27-CD70 for the development of CMV-specific T cell immunity. In this study, the in vivo role of CD27-CD70 costimulation during mouse CMV infection was examined. During the acute phase of infection, the magnitudes of CMV-specific CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cell responses were decreased in mice with abrogated CD27-CD70 costimulation. Moreover, the accumulation of inflationary memory T cells during the persistent phase of infection and the ability to undergo secondary expansion required CD27-CD70 interactions. The downmodulation of CD27 expression, however, which occurs gradually and exclusively on inflationary memory T cells, is ligand independent. Furthermore, the IL-2 production in both noninflationary and inflationary CMV-specific T cells was dependent on CD27-CD70 costimulation. Collectively, these results highlight the importance of the CD27-CD70 costimulation pathway for the development of CMV-specific T cell immunity during acute and persistent infection.
