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

Unlike conventional major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I and II molecules reactive T cells, the unconventional T cell subpopulations recognize various non-polymorphic antigen-presenting molecules and are typically characterized by simplified patterns of T cell receptors (TCRs), rapid effector responses and 'public' antigen specificities. Dissecting the recognition patterns of the non-MHC antigens by unconventional TCRs can help us further our understanding of the unconventional T cell immunity. The small size and irregularities of the released unconventional TCR sequences are far from high-quality to support systemic analysis of unconventional TCR repertoire. Here we present UcTCRdb, a database that contains 669,900 unconventional TCRs collected from 34 corresponding studies in humans, mice, and cattle. In UcTCRdb, users can interactively browse TCR features of different unconventional T cell subsets in different species, search and download sequences under different conditions. Additionally, basic and advanced online TCR analysis tools have been integrated into the database, which will facilitate the study of unconventional TCR patterns for users with different backgrounds. UcTCRdb is freely available at http://uctcrdb.cn/.
