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

Social stress is a risk factor for psychiatric disorders and also influences immune function. While it is known that acute social stress impacts the number of immune cells in circulation, the temporal dynamics of stress induced immune-related transcriptional changes in human blood remain unclear. To investigate changes in gene expression, we exposed 27 adults to the Trier Social Stress Test (TSST), and collected blood at baseline, as well as 5, 30, 60 and 90 min after stress. Whole-blood gene expression was profiled using a 5' targeted RNA-sequencing method (STRT). Differential expression was analyzed using linear and cubic models. We observed a total of 54 differentially expressed genes following stress. Fast responses, with a transient peak immediately following stress, were enriched for cytotoxic T-cell, NK-cell and dendritic cell functions (e.g.,
