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

CCR7⁻/⁻ mice exhibit profound anomalies in lymph node and spleen architecture, which complicates the study of CCR7-mediated T cell trafficking in vivo. To circumvent this problem, we established in vivo models in which wild-type and CCR7⁻/⁻ populations coexist within mice possessing normal lymphoid organs and must compete for developmental niches within the tissues of these mice. Under the conditions we have created in vivo, we find the entry of memory CD4 T cells into lymph nodes from the blood to be independent of CCR7. Thus, the central memory CD4 T cells that traffic though lymph nodes, which are often defined by their expression of CCR7, do not appear to gain any competitive homing advantage by expressing this receptor. Furthermore, in contrast to cutaneous dendritic cell populations, we found that CCR7 deficiency had no appreciable effect on the exit of CD4 T cells from inflamed skin. Finally, we found that wild-type and CCR7⁻/⁻ precursors were equally represented within the major thymic subpopulations, despite previous findings that CCR7 plays a role in seeding the thymus from bone marrow-derived T cell precursors.
