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

Dengue, a widespread mosquito-borne disease, annually afflicts millions globally, posing substantial mortality risks. Preceding disease defervescence, a marked and transient surge in antibody-secreting cell (ASC) frequency correlates with disease severity, paralleled by heightened tryptophan degradation. Investigating details of this process through single-cell transcriptomics from public repositories, our data pinpoint CD14+ monocytes as principal IDO1 and IDO2 expressors, implicating them, rather than B cells, in initiating tryptophan metabolism. Interestingly, naive B cells exhibit altered gene expression indicative of early impact by tryptophan deficiency before defervescence with a potential impact on the B cell fate. Dengue-induced ASCs upregulated GCN2, PERK, eIF2a, ATF4 genes as well as BIM and CASP-3. However, the high expression of anti-apoptotic genes (FKBP8 [a CHOP-regulated gene], BCL-XL, BCL-2, MCL-1) allows enhanced ASC survival. Proliferation and differentiation-related genes (eIF4EBP1, RRM2, and HIF1a) were also upregulated in ASCs. These findings untangle how Dengue modulates the host metabolism and B-cell responses, although further research is needed to fully understand their implications on disease progression.
