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 cell function in cancer patients is usually impaired due to the constitutive activation of immune checkpoint inhibitors. This state is known as 'exhaustion' and is often associated with the inefficient control of tumors or persistent infections. In this work, we investigated the role of leukemia cell-derived microvesicles (MVs) in T cell exhaustion. Following incubation with MVs from various sources, all T cell subtypes exhibited the exhaustion phonotype and impaired cytokine secretion in vitro. Mice models also showed the connection between immune checkpoint inhibitors and MV injection. Sequencing and bioinformatics analyses indicated that a number of transcription factors and microRNAs (miRNAs) were attributable to the dysregulation of pathways and exhaustion in T cells. Further work revealed that functional miR-92a-3p, miR-21-5p, miR-16-5p, miR-126 and miR-182-5p in MVs could be delivered into T cells to induce the exhaustion phenotype. SerpinB2, IL-1β and CXCL5, which are mediators of the NF-κB pathway, were identified as the targets of the miRNAs mentioned above. We demonstrated that leukemia-derived MVs could initiate T cell exhaustion via the progressive temporal delivery of multiple exogenous miRNAs into T cells and the subsequent interaction of these miRNAs with their targets. Therefore, MVs can be expected not only to become new indicators of the T cell status in patients but also to be used as novel targets for personalized patient treatment.
