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

Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) is characterized by an excessive pulmonary T cell response after exposure to inhaled antigens. Antigen avoidance is the best treatment, but in most cases, an antigen cannot be identified. Profiling antigen-specific T cell responses in HP may provide a strategy to identify causative antigens. We used public RNA sequencing data and reconstructed T cell receptor (TCR) repertoires from bronchoalveolar lavage samples from patients with HP and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and healthy controls. After excluding TCR sequences likely to be related to common microbial exposures in patients with HP, we identified TCRs shared between patients with shared human leukocyte antigen alleles, indicating patients likely to have a common causative antigen. We also found clusters of identical and similar TCR clones in individual patients that are plausibly related to the causative antigens in those patients. These results establish the feasibility of profiling TCR repertoires to identify antigens in HP.
