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

Influenza virus gains entry into the body by inhalation and initiates its replication cycle within the lung. The early stage of infection, while the virus is confined to the lung mucosa, provides the ideal window of opportunity for an effective immune response to control the infection. Tissue-resident memory (Trm) CD8 T cells, located in a variety of tissues including the lung, are ideally situated to act during this window and stall the infection. The factors involved in the differentiation of lung Trm cells remain poorly defined. We demonstrate that recognition of antigen presented locally by dendritic cells (DCs) and transforming growth factor-β (TGFβ) signaling are both required. We exploited this knowledge to develop an antibody-targeted vaccination approach to generate lung Trm cells. Delivering antigen exclusively to respiratory DCs results in the development of lung CD8 Trm cells that are highly protective against lethal influenza challenge. Our results describe an effective vaccination strategy that protects against influenza virus infection.
