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

Adaptive as well as innate immune traits are variously affected by environmental and genetic influences, but little is known about the impact of genetics on the diversity, differentiation and functionality of γδ T cells in humans. Here, we analyzed a cohort of 95 middle-aged twins from the Danish Twin Registry. The differentiation status of peripheral αβ and γδ T cells was assessed by flow cytometry based on the surface expression of CD27, CD28 and CD45RA. Our data confirm the established associations of latent cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection with an accumulation of late differentiated memory T cells in the αβ compartment as well as in the Vδ1+ γδ T cell subset. A comparison of differentiation phenotypes of γδ and αβ T cells that were not affected by CMV seropositivity identified a significant correlation of early differentiated (ED) Vδ2+ and intermediate differentiated (ID) CD4+ T cells in monozygotic (MZ), but not in dizygotic (DZ) co-twins. Thus, our data suggest a genetic influence on the differentiation of γδ and αß T cell subsets.
