Combination adjuvants drive long lived plastic Th17 cells that convert to multi-functional Th1 cells and protect mice against fungal infection.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Th1 cells are viewed as a cornerstone of immunity to fungi and other intracellular pathogens. Despite the widely accepted role of Th1 cells in antifungal resistance, the development of protective strategies harnessing them is stunted by a limited understanding of how best to promote their development. We and others have reported a requisite role for Th17 cells in resistance to fungi. We have long been puzzled about how to reconcile seminal roles for both Th1 and Th17 subsets. Here we report that Th17 cells convert into polyfunctional Th1 cells producing multiple cytokines, including IFN-γ, TNF and GM-CSF when we used adjuvant formulations that include glucopyranosyl lipid adjuvant (GLA) to enhance antifungal immunity. GLA induced plastic Th17 cells that convert into polyfunctional Th1 memory cells.
