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

backgroundMemory T cells develop during an initial hypertensive episode, sensitizing mice to develop hypertension from further mild hypertensive challenges. We hypothesized that memory γδ T cells develop after a hypertensive challenge and sensitize mice to develop hypertension in response to a subsequent mild hypertensive challenge.

methodsThe first aim was to profile memory γδ T cells after a 14-day pressor dose angiotensin II (AngII) infusion (490 ng/kg/min, subcutaneously) in male mice. The second aim was to deplete γδ T cells during a second 14-day subpressor dose AngII challenge (140 ng/kg/min, subcutaneously) in mice pre-exposed to an initial pressor dose AngII challenge. The third aim was to transfer 2.5 × 105 live pre-activated or not γδ T cells from mice that had received a 14-day pressor dose AngII infusion or sham treatment, to naive recipient mice stimulated with a subpressor dose AngII infusion.

resultsEffector memory γδ T cells increased 5.2-fold in mesenteric vessels and perivascular adipose tissue, and 1.8-fold in mesenteric lymph nodes in pressor dose AngII-infused mice compared with sham-treated mice. Mice depleted of γδ T cells had 14 mm Hg lower systolic blood pressure (SBP) elevation than control mice from day 7 to 14 of subpressor dose AngII infusion. Adoptive transfer of γδ T cells from hypertensive mice induced an 18 mm Hg higher SBP elevation compared with a subpressor dose AngII infusion vs. γδ T cells transferred from sham-treated mice.

conclusionsMemory γδ T cells develop in response to hypertensive stimuli, and contribute to the pathogenesis of hypertension.
