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

Microfold (M) cells transcytose luminal antigens to initiate mucosal adaptive immunity, but their role in organizing innate responses in Peyer's patches is unclear. Here we showed that Peyer's patch M cells organized an epithelial-group 3 innate lymphoid cell (ILC3) axis, establishing a spatial niche within the dome epithelium that drove ILC3 localization, proliferation and IL-22 production. We found that epithelial, but not hematopoietic, SPI-B was required for intestinal IgA responses to establish this niche. Single-cell profiling of intestinal SPI-B
