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

First encounter of Toxoplasma with the host immune system occurs within tissues of the intestine, including the intestinal mucosa and draining lymph nodes. In this study, we focused on the mesenteric lymph node compartment, the central hub of adaptive immune induction following orally acquired infection. We examined innate lymphoid cells (ILC) in mesenteric lymph nodes during Toxoplasma infection, determining the influence of MyD88 and the T lymphocyte compartment on ILC subset distribution, IFN-γ production, MHC class II expression and proliferation. Collectively, we observed an ILC1-dominated response that was impacted by both MyD88 and T lymphocytes. We also found a population of putative ILC that were negative for signature transcription factors associated with ILC1, 2 and 3 subsets. This study increases our understanding of ILC-mediated immunity during Toxoplasma infection and points to the complex interactions with which these cells engage T cell and MyD88-dependent immunity.
