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

T lymphocytes are of paramount importance in many intercellular reactions, such as the regulation of the inflammatory response and immune reactivity. Until the recent past, single-cell techniques were used for the investigation of calcium influx during T lymphocyte activation. Therefore, over the recent years we have created a novel approach that allows simultaneous recording of calcium influx in several lymphocyte subsets using flow cytometry. Our research group developed a robust algorithm (FacsKin) for the evaluation of the acquired data that fits functions to median values of the fluorescent marker of interest and calculates relevant parameters describing each function. Over the recent years, we have investigated calcium influx characteristics applying this method in a number of autoimmune disorders and under different physiological conditions (such as the neonatal period and pregnancy). In this review, we aim to give a brief summary of our findings and of the common characteristics of calcium influx in the investigated disorders, namely: multiple sclerosis (MS), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), ankylosing spondylitis (AS), and preeclampsia (PE). Based on our results, a number of dominant features were identified that were present in most of the investigated autoimmune diseases.
