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

Marsupials diverged from eutherian mammals 125-160 million years ago. Although evolutionarily distinct, both groups of mammals can produce complex adaptive immune responses to antigens with several key differences. This review analyses the current understanding of the adaptive immune system in marsupials and highlights key differences, including the absence of IgD in marsupial genomes and the presence of an additional T cell receptor. We summarize what is known about T cells and antibodies of marsupials, and their role in marsupial diseases including tuberculosis and sarcoptic mange. We also discuss how the innate immune system interacts with the adaptive immune system. As vaccinology becomes increasingly incorporated into marsupial disease management and conservation, we review key vaccine research within this mammalian clade. Further research is needed to expand and improve our understanding of disease responses in marsupials and help prevent further disease-driven extinctions.
