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

The strong links between (Human Leukocyte Antigen) HLA, infection and autoimmunity combine to implicate T-cells as primary triggers of autoimmune disease (AD). T-cell crossreactivity between microbially-derived peptides and self-peptides has been shown to break tolerance and trigger AD in experimental animal models. Detailed examination of the potential for T-cell crossreactivity to trigger human AD will require means of predicting which peptides might be recognised by autoimmune T-cell receptors (TCRs). Recent developments in high throughput sequencing and bioinformatics mean that it is now possible to link individual TCRs to specific pathologies for the first time. Deconvolution of TCR function requires knowledge of TCR specificity. Positional Scanning Combinatorial Peptide Libraries (PS-CPLs) can be used to predict HLA-restriction and define antigenic peptides derived from self and pathogen proteins.
