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

The regulation of T cell homeostasis during pregnancy has important implications for maternal tolerance and immunity. Evidence suggests that Programmed Death-1 (PD-1) participates in regulation of T cell homeostasis and peripheral tolerance. To examine the contribution of PD-1 signaling on T cell homeostasis during normal mouse pregnancy, we examined T cell number or proportion, PD-1 expression, proliferation, and apoptosis by flow cytometry, BrdU incorporation, and TUNEL assay in pregnant mice given anti-PD-1 blocking antibody or control on days 10, 12, and 14 of gestation. We observed tissue, treatment, and T cell-specific differences in PD-1 expression. Both pregnancy and PD-1 blockade increased T cell proliferation in the spleen, yet this effect was limited to CD4 T cells in the uterine- draining nodes. In the uterus, PD-1 blockade markedly altered the composition of the T cell pool. These studies support the idea that pregnancy is a state of dynamic T cell homeostasis and suggest that this state is partially supported by PD-1 signaling.
