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

objectiveThis study aimed to investigate the role of inducible costimulatory molecule (ICOS) pathway in the rejection reaction of mice undergoing allogeneic tracheal transplantation.

methodsThe bronchus was separated from wide-type (WT) BalB/c mice and transplanted into WT BalB/c mice, C57 mice and icos(-/-) mice to prepare the obliterative bronchiolitis (OB) animal model. The transplanted bronchus was pathologically examined; flow cytometry was done to detect the T cell subsets and activity of the bronchus and spleen of recipient mice.

results21 d after transplantation, evident rejection reaction was observed and the proportion of Th2 and Th17 cells increased significantly in the bronchus and spleen in C57 mice receiving allogeneic tracheal transplantation when compared with mice with autologous transplantation, but the proportion of Treg cells was comparable between them. When compared with WT BalB/c mice, the proportion of Th2, Th17 and Treg cells reduced markedly and rejection reaction was attenuated in icos(-/-) mice receiving tracheal transplantation, although rejection reaction was still noted.

conclusionicos knockout may delay the rejection reaction after tracheal transplantation, which might be ascribed to the imbalance among Th2, Th17 and Treg cells.
