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

Introduction: Lag3 and PD-1 are immune checkpoints that regulate T cell responses and are current immunotherapy targets. Yet how they function to control early stages of CD4 Methods: Here, we show that the PD-1 and Lag3 pathways exhibit layered control of the early CD4 Results: NFAT pathway inhibition abolished CB-induced upregulation of NFAT-dependent co-receptors ICOS and OX40, whilst unaffecting the NFAT-independent gene Conclusion: Our data therefore reveal that PD-1 and Lag3 pathways converge to additively regulate TCR signal duration and may preferentially control NFAT-dependent transcriptional activity during early CD4
