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

Follicular helper T cells (Tfh cells) are closely related to the occurrence and development of antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) after renal transplantation. Exosomes play a key role in the rejection after organ transplantation. However, whether Tfh-derived exosomes are involved in AMR has not been reported. We collected peripheral blood from 42 kidney transplant patients and found no significant differences in CD4+CXCR5+ and CD4+CXCR5+CXCR3+CCR6-exosomes between AMR and non-AMR groups, whereas the proportion of CD4+CXCR5+CXCR3-exosomes was significantly higher in AMR group than that in non-AMR group; CTLA-4 expression of CD4+CXCR5+exosomes was significantly lower in AMR group than that in non-AMR group. HLA-G expression was not significantly different between two groups. We further separated CD4+CXCR5+cells from patients by magnetic beads. Coculture experiments showed that Tfh cell-derived exosomes in AMR patients significantly promoted B cell proliferation and differentiation, compared with non-AMR group, the percentage of B cells and plasma cells increased by 87.52% and 110.2%, respectively. In conclusion, our study found that Tfh cell-derived exosomes could promote the proliferation and differentiation of B cells and they may play an important role in the development of AMR after renal transplantation.
