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

Mucosal-associated invariant T cells (MAIT) are innate-like lymphocytes enriched in mucosal organs where they contribute to antimicrobial defense. APECED is an inborn error of immunity characterized by immune dysregulation and chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis. Reduction in the frequency of circulating MAITs has been reported in many inborn errors of immunity, but only in a few of them, the functional competence of MAITs has been assessed. Here, we show in a cohort of 24 patients with APECED, that the proportion of circulating MAITs was reduced compared with healthy age and sex-matched controls (1.1% vs. 2.6% of CD3
