Dysfunctional bronchoalveolar effector memory CD8
Article in iScience, 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
HIV causes susceptibility to respiratory pathogens, including tuberculosis (TB), but the underlying immunological mechanisms remain incompletely understood. We obtained whole blood and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) from TB-exposed people in the presence or absence of antiretroviral-naïve HIV co-infection. Bulk transcriptional profiling demonstrated compartment-specific enrichment of immunological processes. Systems-level deconvolution of whole blood from people living with HIV identified elevated type I and type II interferon cytokine activity and T cell proliferation. Transcriptional modules derived from both peripheral blood and sorted BAL immune cells demonstrated an increased frequency of effector memory CD8 T cells in whole BAL samples. Both compartments displayed reduced induction of CD8 T-cell-derived interleukin-17A (IL-17A) in people with HIV, associated with elevated T cell regulatory molecule expression. The data suggest that dysfunctional CD8 T cell responses in uncontrolled HIV may contribute to compromised respiratory immunity to pathogens, a process that could be modulated by host-directed therapies that target CD8 T cell effector functions.
