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

Background: Amphibians are valuable models for comparative immunology. In the caudate Methods: T cell receptor loci were mapped and annotated in the Results: The T cell receptor alpha and delta locus in axolotl shows an overall conserved structure compared with other tetrapods. The alpha locus contained a higher number of variable genes than the beta and delta loci, with a predominance of functional genes (ratio 3.06). No gene encoding the pre-T cell receptor chain alpha was identified. The delta locus harbored two conventional variable genes, but no expression was detected in RNA sequencing data, suggesting pseudogenization. Neither delta chain diversity genes nor gamma chain elements were found in the genome or spleen transcriptome. The beta locus displayed structural similarity to that of other tetrapods and included five translocons with diversity, joining, and constant segments. One constant gene consisted of two exons encoding two constant domains. Functional variable genes predominated in the beta locus (ratio 3.6). Conclusion: Our study reveals conserved but distinctive features of axolotl T cell receptor loci, including restricted delta-chain diversity, absence of gamma chain and pre-T cell receptor alpha, and structural novelty in the beta locus. These findings provide new insights into the evolution of T cell receptors in amphibians and offer a genomic framework to explore the links between adaptive immunity and tissue regeneration in
