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

Using immunoselection, we have isolated 11 independent mutant HT1080 fibrosarcoma cell lines defective in the induction by interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) of the expression of the human leukocyte antigen HLA-DRA. The mutations are recessive and fall into five complementation groups. All the mutants are affected mainly in the expression of major histocompatibility complex class II and invariant-chain genes. Type I mutants (three complementation groups) are completely defective in induction of the invariant-chain and class II HLA-DP, -DQ, -DR, and -DM genes, whereas type II mutants (two complementation groups) induce these genes weakly in response to IFN-gamma, in the order DPB > DRA > invariant chain. The induction by IFN-gamma of the mRNAs for class I, TAP1, LMP7, and 9-27 is partially defective and the induction of the proteins IRF-1 and ICAM-1 is normal in both types of mutants. All the mutants respond normally to IFN-alpha. The mutants are stable and thus can be used to clone the affected genes by reversion.
