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

Food shortages and infectious diseases were constant threats throughout mammalian evolution and often occurred simultaneously. When food availability is reduced, it is unclear how the host adapts to support glucose-demanding immune processes while preventing hypoglycemia. In the context of dietary restriction (DR), we found that glucocorticoids (GCs) aligned naive, effector, and memory T cell populations with the nutritional status of the host. DR-induced GCs promoted naive T cell homing to the bone marrow, which supported their homeostasis at steady state. Following a primary infection, DR-induced GCs rewired immunity to simultaneously uphold pathogen control and systemic glucose homeostasis. GCs achieved this by dampening effector T cells and enhancing the response of neutrophils with reduced glucose dependence. Although the total effector T cell pool was decreased during DR, GCs enriched memory-precursor effector cells to preserve memory formation. Thus, GCs align immunity and metabolic physiology to ensure host fitness when food availability is reduced.
