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

Dock8 deficiency leads to immunodeficiency, and the role of Dock8 in B-cell development and function has been revealed; however, the role of DocK8 on B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling and function of memory B cells remains elusive. In this study, we generated a Dock8 knockout mouse model and collected peripheral blood mononuclear cells from Dock8 patients to study the effect of Dock8 deficiency on the BCR signaling and activation of memory B cells with confocal microscopy and total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy. The activation of key, positive upstream BCR signaling molecules, pCD19 and phosphorylated Brutons tyrosine kinase (pBtk), is reduced. Interestingly, the total protein and activated levels of Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (WASP) are decreased in Dock8-deficient mouse B cells. Our previous research has shown that WASP positively regulates
