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

Understanding the relationship between T cell receptors (TCRs) and human leukocyte antigens (HLAs) is essential for elucidating immune response specificity, uncovering mechanisms of autoimmunity, and advancing targeted immunotherapies. We have previously developed a deep learning method, DePTH (Deep Learning Prediction of TCR-HLA associations), to predict the association between a TCR and an HLA based on their amino acid sequences. In this work, we evaluated the performance of DePTH in two additional datasets, and investigated the influence of two potential confounding factors: TCR generation probability and the sequence length of CDR3 (Complementarity-Determining Region 3), which is a key region in the antigen-binding site of TCRs. Building on these insights, we combined training data from two datasets to train a new version of DePTH: DePTH 2.0.
