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

Adult-onset immunodeficiency (AOID) can be associated with anti-interferon (IFN)-γ autoantibodies (AIGAs). Rituximab (RTX) reduces circulating B cells but often fails to eliminate AIGAs, suggesting the presence of long-lived antibody-secreting cells (ASCs) in immune-privileged sites. Here, we identified 23 distinct IFN-γ-specific monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) from bone marrow (BM) ASCs of AOID patients using microwell array chip technology and single-cell RNA sequencing. Competitive assays demonstrated that neutralizing mAbs disrupt IFN-γ engagement with IFN-γR1 or IFN-γR2, impairing JAK-STAT1 signaling. Structural analysis of neutralizing mAb A01BM-03 revealed its binding to a quaternary epitope on dimeric IFN-γ, disrupting IFN-γR2 interaction. Notably, clonally expanded IFN-γ-specific ASCs were localized within a CD11c
