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

Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is the major complication of allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT). GVHD is a complex immunologically mediated biological process. Recent data have shown that histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACis) have potent anti-inflammatory effects. We have been studying the role of acetylation through inhibition of histone deacetylases (HDACs) in modulating immunity, specifically, GVHD. HDAC inhibition regulates GVHD, at least in part, through suppression of the function of host antigen presenting cells such as dendritic cells (DCs). HDACis reduce DC responses by enhancing the expression of indoleamine 2,3 dioxygenase (IDO) in a STAT-3-dependent manner. They also alter the function of other immune cells such as T regulatory cells and NK cells, which also play important roles in the biology of GVHD. Based on these observations, a clinical trial has been launched to evaluate its impact on clinical GVHD. The clinical features, biology of GVHD, the experimental studies with HDACis, and preliminary observations from humans are discussed.
