Immune Modulatory Effects of PD-1/PD-L1 in Myasthenia Gravis: Insights From Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cell Analysis.
Article in FASEB journal : official publication of the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disease characterized by the production of antibodies targeting acetylcholine receptor (AChR)-associated proteins. The disorder involves various immune cells, including T cells, B cells, and dendritic cells (DCs). Programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) is one of the immune checkpoints and plays a crucial role in regulating immune cell activation and cell death. PD-L1, the ligand of PD-1, is critical for immune suppression through the transmission of inhibitory signals. These molecules are implicated in the pathogenesis of MG, prompting further investigation into the expression and functional roles of PD-1/PD-L1 in this disease. To investigate the role of PD-1/PD-L1 in MG pathogenesis, we collected peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from MG patients and analyzed PD-1/PD-L1 expression in various immune cells using flow cytometry (FACs). Our findings revealed that PD-1/PD-L1 expression was elevated in PBMCs from MG patients compared to healthy controls. We conducted a correlation analysis to examine the relationship between PD-1/PD-L1 expression and MG, based on measurements of anti-AChR-IgG levels, MG-specific cytokines, and routine blood tests. Our results showed that PD-1 expression in CD8
