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

purposeTumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) have been extensively described in anti-tumor immunity, but their functional alterations in the immunoediting processes during neoplastic progression in the uterine cervix are still not clear. Our aim was to gain insight into cervical tissue T cell populations, determine if there are any differences in the localization and quantity distribution of T lymphocytes, and to evaluate their role in disease regression or progression in the cervical neoplastic milieu. PATIENTS AND

methodsSerial section analysis of immunohistochemically stained CD4 and CD8 lymphocytes was performed on a total number of 72 samples, categorized into four cohorts: 23 HPV non-infected (HPV-) normal cervix, 20 HPV infected (HPV+) normal cervix, 17 HPV+ low grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN), and 12 HPV+ high grade CIN.

resultsLow infiltrating lymphocytes (ILs) in normal cervix and high ILs in CIN were observed, while the trend of ILs increased with increasing grade of CIN, which was statistically significant (

conclusionT cell infiltrates were predominant as the grade of the lesion progressed into more advanced lesions, which likely represent the lesions that have persisted over time. The variation in the infiltration rate and the location of CD4+
