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

Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells, a blossoming member of the innate-like T cells, play a pivotal role in host defense through engaging the mucosal immunity. Although it has been suggested that MAIT cells are somehow implicated in the allergic airway inflammation mediated by group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) such as asthma, the precise role(s) of MAIT cells in such inflammation has remained elusive. To explore the possible roles of MAIT cells in the inflammation, we examined whether MAIT cells suppressed the production of T helper (Th) 2 and inflammatory cytokines from ILC2s, and constrained the proliferation of ILC2s, both of which are prerequisite for airway inflammation. Given that laboratory mice are poor at MAIT cells, a novel mouse line rich in MAIT cells was used. We found that mice rich in MAIT cells showed alleviated airway inflammation as evidenced by reduced infiltration of the immune cells and hyperplasia in goblet cells in the lung concomitant with compromised production of Th2 and inflammatory cytokines, while wild type mice exhibited severe inflammation upon challenge with the fungal extracts.
