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

Ample evidence exists for activation of invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells in a sterile manner by endogenous ligands or microbial antigens from the commensal flora, indicating that iNKT cells are not truly self-tolerant. Their controlled autoreactivity state is disturbed in many types of sterile inflammatory disease, resulting in their central role in modulating autoimmune responses. This review focuses on sterile iNKT-cell responses that are initiated by metabolic triggers, such as obesity-associated inflammation and fatty liver disease, as a manifestation of metabolic disease and dyslipidemia, as well as ischemia reperfusion injuries and sickle cell disease, characterized by acute lack of oxygen and oxidative stress response on reperfusion. In the intestine, inflammation and iNKT-cell response type are shaped by the microbiome as an extended "self". Disease- and organ-specific differences in iNKT-cell response type are summarized and help to define common pathways that shape iNKT-cell responses in the absence of exogenous antigen.
