Mucosal associated invariant T cells: Powerhouses of the lung.
Review in Immunology letters, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
The lungs face constant environmental challenges from harmless molecules, airborne pathogens and harmful agents that can damage the tissue. The lungs' immune system includes numerous tissue-resident lymphocytes that contribute to maintain tissue homeostasis and to the early initiation of immune responses. Amongst tissue-resident lymphocytes, Mucosal Associated Invariant T (MAIT) cells are present in human and murine lungs and emerging evidence supports their contribution to immune responses during infections, chronic inflammatory disorders and cancer. This review explores the mechanisms underpinning MAIT cell functions in the airways, their impact on lung immunity and the potential for targeting pulmonary MAIT cells in a therapeutic context.
