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 clinical problem with a significant unmet medical need. We examined the role of cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) in a xenogenic GvHD (xeno-GvHD) model induced by injection of human peripheral mononuclear cells (hPBMC) into irradiated non-obese diabetic (NOD) SCID gamma (NSG) mice. Targeting the CTLA-4 pathway by treatment with CTLA-4 immunoglobulin (Ig) prevented xeno-GvHD, while anti-CTLA-4 antibody treatment exacerbated the lethality and morbidity associated with GvHD. Xeno-GvHD is associated with infiltration of hPBMCs into the lungs, spleen, stomach, liver and colon and an increase in human proinflammatory cytokines, including interferon (IFN)-γ, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and interleukin (IL)-5. Infiltration of donor cells and increases in cytokines were attenuated by treatment with CTLA-4 Ig, but remained either unaffected or enhanced by anti-CTLA-4 antibody. Further, splenic human T cell phenotyping showed that CTLA-4 Ig treatment prevented the engraftment of human CD45
