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

The highly polymorphic Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) genes are responsible for the binding and cell surface presentation of pathogen or cancer specific T-cell epitopes. This process is fundamental for eliciting T-cell recognition of infected or malignant cells. Epitopes displayed on MHC molecules further provide therapeutic targets for personalized cancer vaccines or adoptive T-cell therapy. To help visualizing, analyzing and comparing the different binding specificities of MHC molecules, we developed the MHC Motif Atlas (http://mhcmotifatlas.org/). This database contains information about thousands of class I and class II MHC molecules, including binding motifs, peptide length distributions, motifs of phosphorylated ligands, multiple specificities or links to X-ray crystallography structures. The database further enables users to download curated datasets of MHC ligands. By combining intuitive visualization of the main binding properties of MHC molecules together with access to more than a million ligands, the MHC Motif Atlas provides a central resource to analyze and interpret the binding specificities of MHC molecules.
