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

Multiphoton microscopy has provided us the ability to visualize cell behavior and biology in intact organs due to its superiority in reaching deep into tissues. Because skin draining lymph nodes are readily accessible via minimal surgery, it is possible to characterize the intricate interactions taking place in peripheral lymph nodes intravitally. Here we describe our protocol to visualize antigen-specific T cell-dendritic cell interactions in the popliteal lymph node of immunocompetent mice. With this method, behaviors of up to four cell types, such as T cells with different antigen specificities, T cells differentiated into different effector and regulatory lineages and dendritic cells originating from mice that bear mutations in functional genes can be imaged simultaneously.
