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

purposeTo evaluate changes in T-cell populations in peripheral blood after bland hepatic artery embolization (HAE). MATERIALS AND

methodsBland HAE was performed in 12 patients to treat primary (n = 5) or metastatic (n = 7) liver tumors, using microspheres and polyvinyl alcohol (n = 8) or microspheres alone (n = 4). Patient peripheral blood samples were collected within 1 month before HAE, within 1 week after HAE (early period after HAE), and 2-8 weeks after HAE (follow-up period). Peripheral blood populations of cytotoxic T lymphocytes, CD4(+) T cells, type 1 helper T cells (Th1) and type 2 helper T cells (Th2), and regulatory T cells (Treg) were evaluated using flow cytometry. Changes in T-cell populations before and after bland HAE were compared using paired t tests.

resultsPeripheral blood CD4(+) T-cell populations decreased significantly in the early period after HAE (44.0% ± 2.2 to 34.4% ± 3.6, P < .01) and in the follow-up period (44.0% ± 2.2 to 36.3% ± 3.0, P < .01). Among the individual CD4(+) T-cell subtypes, Treg (2.5% ± 0.3 to 1.7% ± 0.2, P < .02) and Th1 (8.1% ± 1.8 to 5.6% ± 1.6, P < .02) decreased significantly in the early period after HAE only. The presence of extrahepatic disease was associated with decreasing Treg (P < .04).

conclusionsAfter HAE, the peripheral blood T-cell environment is changed with decreases in Treg and Th1.
