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

During the past 10 years knowledge about the interactions between major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules and the T-cell receptor (TCR) complex of cytotoxic T-cells (CTL) has developed dramatically. But the primary interest, both with respect to structure as well as function, has concentrated on HLA-A and -B molecules because of their high sequence polymorphism and their dominating presence at the cell surface. In contrast, HLA-C molecules seemed to be of only minor importance in the cascade of immune reactions owing to their more limited polymorphism and reduced levels of surface expression. The inability to define a number of antigen specificities had the result that HLA-C molecules were often neglected in studies of immune response, transplantation, and disease association. More recently a new function has been identified for HLA class I molecules where they act as inhibitors of the lytic capacity of natural killer (NK) cells and non-MHC-restricted T-cells. Moreover, the understanding of this novel mode of negative regulation of cytotoxicity was remarkably influenced by HLA-C since these were the first HLA class I molecules found to have such inhibitory potential. With this new inhibitory function serving as an essential component of the immune system, HLA-C molecules can no longer be neglected.
