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

Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue 1 (Malt1) regulates immune cell function by mediating the activation of nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) signaling through both its adaptor and proteolytic function. Malt1 is also a target of its own protease activity and this self-cleavage further contributes to NF-κB activity. Until now, the functional distinction between Malt1 self-cleavage and its general protease function in regulating NF-κB signaling and immune activation remained unclear. Here we demonstrate, using a new mouse model, the importance of Malt1 self-cleavage in regulating expression of NF-κB target genes and subsequent T cell activation. Significantly, we further establish that Treg homeostasis is critically linked to Malt1 function via a Treg intrinsic and extrinsic mechanism. TCR-mediated Malt1 proteolytic activity and self-cleavage was found to drive Il2 expression in conventional CD4
