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

Sarcoidosis is a systemic granulomatous disease mainly affecting the lungs and hilomediastinal lymph nodes. It is characterized by non-caseating epithelioid cell granulomas in lymph nodes and lungs. Our study aimed to evaluate and compare T, B and NK cell subsets in the alveolar compartment, lymph nodes and the bloodstream simultaneously in the same patients to elucidate the immune responses associated with the development and progression of sarcoidosis. A secondary aim was to evaluate the distribution of CD45RA-expressing cells in the different anatomical compartments. Patients suspected to have sarcoidosis and who underwent bronchoscopy with bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), lung-draining lymph node (LLN) biopsy by EBUS-TBNA and peripheral blood (PB) sampling were included in the study. They were monitored at the Regional Referral Centre of Siena University Hospital and the Respiratory Diseases Unit of Perugia Hospital. Multicolour flow cytometry analysis through FASCLyric was performed to assess T, B and NK cell subsets. Thirty-two patients (median age (IQR) 57 (52-58) years) were consecutively and prospectively enrolled. Machine learning analysis created a model which selected CD56dim16bright, CD8, Tfc, Th17, Th12, Tfh17, Tfh2, Tc
