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

Maintaining a balanced immunity between pathogen defense and tolerance to environmental antigens in neonates is essential for survival and the establishment of life-long immune homeostasis. Instructed by environmental signals, type 1 conventional dendritic cells (cDC1) contribute to both processes but how the balance may be achieved is unclear. Here, we uncover an interferon (IFN)γ-driven regulatory circuit in early life that relays dietary cues to spleen cDC1. IFNγ-mediated STAT1-signaling induces an immunogenic maturation program in spleen cDC1 that enables them to shape the effector differentiation of antigen-experienced effector memory CD8⁺ T cells. This cDC1 program emerges during the transition from breastfeeding to solid food at weaning, occurs in germ-free mice, and remains operative to dietary intervention in adult mice. At weaning, this IFNγ signal enables spleen cDC1 to shape the effector phenotype of food-antigen-specific CD8
