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

During infection, a subset of effector T cells seeds the lymphoid and non-lymphoid tissues and gives rise to tissue-resident memory T cells (TRM). Recent findings have provided insight into the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying tissue instruction of TRM cell homing, as well as the programs involved in their retention and maintenance. We review these findings here, highlighting both common features and distinctions between CD4 TRM and CD8 TRM cells. In this context we examine the role of memory lymphocyte clusters (MLCs), and propose that the MLCs serve as an immediate response center consisting of TRM cells on standby, capable of detecting incoming pathogens and mounting robust local immune responses to contain and limit the spread of infectious agents.
