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

backgroundAbacavir (ABC)-induced hypersensitivity is associated with HLA-B*57:01, with tolerance maintained by regulatory T cells (Treg). This study hypothesized that the balance between Treg and CD8

methodsHLA-B*57:01 transgenic (Tg) mice and Tg mice lacking H2-K

resultsABC treatment of Tg/KO mice, which only express HLA-B*57:01 as an MHC-I allele, led to the expansion of drug-specific CD8

conclusionsIn vivo upregulation of HLA expression modulates the balance between drug-specific and regulatory T cells, thereby promoting optimal pDC expansion and enhancing IFN-α production, which counteracts Treg-mediated ABC tolerance. IFN-γ secretion by drug-specific CD8
