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

GPI-linked surface molecules have recently been described as structures with an activation potential for human T lymphocytes. To study the role of these molecules in T cell activation we analysed GPI-deficient or normal T cells from patients with paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria (PNH). On activation with allogeneic Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-transformed B cell lines GPI-deficient freshly separated T cells or continuously growing T cell lines exhibited a significantly lower proliferation or cytokine production compared with their normal counterparts. In contrast, stimulation via the T cell receptor-associated CD3 structure resulted in a comparable response. There was no difference in activation of normal T lymphocytes when GPI-deficient B cells were used as stimulators compared with normal B cells obtained from the same PNH patient. We conclude from these data that GPI deficiency in PNH leads to a functional deficiency of GPI-deficient T cells. In contrast, no difference in activation of T lymphocytes for GPI-deficient cells on the stimulator cell level was observed.
