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

T cell activation is regulated by two distinct signals, signals one and two. Concanavalin A (ConA) is an antigen-independent mitogen and functions as signal one inducer, leading T cells to polyclonal proliferation. CD28 is known to be one of major costimulatory receptors and to provide signal two in the ConA-induced T cell proliferation. Here, we have studied the implication of other costimulatory pathways in the ConA-mediated T cell proliferation by using soluble recombinant proteins consisting of an extracellular domain of costimulatory receptors and Fc portion of human IgG. We found that T cell proliferation induced by ConA, but not PMA plus ionomycin or anti-CD3 mAb, is significantly inhibited by herpes virus entry mediator (HVEM)-Ig, even in the presence of CD28 signaling. Moreover, the high concentration of HVEM-Ig molecules almost completely suppressed ConA-mediated T cell proliferation. These results suggest that HVEM might play more important roles than CD28 in ConA-mediated T cell proliferation.
