An observation that illustrates most T cell receptor structure-function relationships.
Review in Immunologic research, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
The Standard model of the T cell receptor (TCR) structure-function relationships is based on an analogy with the B cell receptor. Here a single observation is analyzed to show why this appears to be untenable. The Standard model cannot account for allele-specific recognition of theMHC-encoded presenter of peptide (R) by the TCR nor can it adequately explain alloreactivity. The competing framework is based on the assumptions that (1) single V-domains recognize the alleles of R, (2) restrictive reactivity is peptide specific, whereas alloreactivity is peptide unspecific, and (3) the TCR is born in two conformations, which display reciprocal behaviors (see text). In any case, whatever position one takes regarding these two models, competing conceptualizations are of crucial value in guiding experimentation, not to mention creative thinking.
