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

Graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) is a major complication of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), mediated primarily by donor T cells that become activated and attack host tissues. Noninvasive strategies detecting T-cell activation would allow for early diagnosis and possibly more effective management of HCT recipients. PET imaging is a sensitive and clinically relevant modality ideal for GvHD diagnosis, and there is a strong rationale for the use of PET tracers that can monitor T-cell activation and expansion with high specificity. The TNF receptor superfamily member OX40 (CD134) is a cell surface marker that is highly specific for activated T cells, is upregulated during GvHD, and mediates disease pathogenesis. We recently reported the development of an antibody-based activated T-cell imaging agent targeting OX40. In the present study, we visualize the dynamics of OX40 expression in an MHC-mismatch mouse model of acute GvHD using OX40-immunoPET. This approach enabled visualization of T-cell activation at early stages of disease, prior to overt clinical symptoms with high sensitivity and specificity. This study highlights the potential utility of the OX40 PET imaging as a new strategy for GvHD diagnosis and therapy monitoring. SIGNIFICANCE: OX40-immunoPET imaging is a promising noninvasive strategy for early detection of GvHD, capable of detecting signs of GvHD pathology even prior to the development of overt clinical symptoms.
