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

We have shown that Hsp60sp-loaded immature dendritic cells (DC/sp) can protect mice from the induction of experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) by inducing Qa-1-restricted CD8(+) T regulatory (Treg) cells. The binding half-life between Qa-1 and Hsp60sp is particularly short and leads to an unstable Qa-1/peptide complex that significantly decreases the efficacy of this vaccination. To prevent Qa-1/Hsp60sp complex dissociation, we utilized paraformaldehyde (PFA) fixation to stabilize the formation of the Qa-1/Hsp60sp complex and maximize the function of DC/sp as a vaccine to control autoimmune diseases. Compared with the non-fixed DC/sp, the fixed DC/sp (FDC/sp) showed an enhanced ability to activate Qa-1-restricted Hsp60sp-specific CD8(+)T cells in vitro and prevented EAE in vivo. Importantly, the FDC/sp maintained immune activity following cryopreservation for 1 week or after storage for 72 h at 4 °C. These results indicate that PFA fixation can sustain or increase the efficacy of DC/sp by improving the stability of the Qa-1/Hsp60sp complex on the surface of the DC/sp. In addition, PFA fixation creates a time window for DC/sp storage, transport and application. Our data suggest a potential clinical use of FDC/sp as a vaccine for the prevention and treatment of autoimmune disease.
