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

The human MAGE3 gene is expressed in a significant proportion of tumors of various histological types, but is silent in normal adult tissues other than testis and placenta. Antigens encoded by MAGE3 may therefore be useful targets for specific antitumor immunization. Two antigenic peptides encoded by the MAGE3 gene have been reported previously. One is presented to cytolytic T lymphocytes (CTL) by HLA-A1, the other by HLA-A2 molecules. Here we show that MAGE3 also codes for a peptide that is presented to CTL by HLA-B44. MAGE3 peptides containing the HLA-B44 peptide binding motif were synthesized. Peptide MEVDPIGHLY, which showed the strongest binding to HLA-B44, was used to stimulate blood T lymphocytes from normal HLA-B44 donors. CTL clones were obtained that recognized not only HLA-B44 cells sensitized with the peptide, but also HLA-B44 tumor cell lines expressing MAGE3. The proportion of metastatic melanomas expressing the MAGE3/HLA-B44 antigen should amount to approximately 17% in the Caucasian population, since 24% of individuals carry the HLA-B44 allele and 76% of these tumors express MAGE3.
