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

CD4 T-cells are important for long-term control and clearance of several fungal infections in humans, particularly those caused by Cryptococcus species. Understanding the mechanisms underlying protective T-cell immunity against fungal infection is critical for developing mechanistic insights into the pathogenesis of the disease. Here, we describe a protocol that enables analysis of fungal-specific CD4 T-cell responses in vivo, using adoptive transfer of fungal-specific T-cell receptor (TCR) transgenic CD4 T-cells. While the protocol here uses a TCR transgenic model reactive to peptide deriving from Cryptococcus neoformans, this method could be adapted to other fungal infection experimental settings.
