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

A case of a young girl diagnosed with an antibody deficiency syndrome serves to highlight the role of CD81 in B cell biology. Moreover, this case illustrates a fundamental function of the tetraspanin family, namely their association with partner proteins. Characterization of the patient's B cells revealed lack of surface CD19 although both of her CD19 alleles were normal. Further analysis determined that her antibody deficiency syndrome was due to a mutation in the CD81 gene, which did not enable expression of CD19 on the surface of the patient's B cells. Actually, the partnership of CD81 with CD19 and the dependency of CD19 for its trafficking to the cell surface expression were first documented in CD81-deficient mice. CD81 is a widely expressed protein, yet the mutation in the antibody-deficient patient impaired mostly her B cell function. CD81 is required for multiple normal physiological functions, which have been subverted by major human pathogens, such as hepatitis C virus. However, this review will focus on the function of CD81 in cells of the adaptive immune system. Specifically, it will highlight studies focusing on the different roles of CD81 in B and T cells and on its function in B-T cell interactions.
