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

Cell mediated immunity (CMI) is crucial for the defense against viruses. Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) play a major role in CMI. They recognize endogenous antigenic peptides presented by antigen presenting cells in association with the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules. The elucidation of the sequence of CTL epitopes of viruses should help in designing better vaccines. In this study, we have identified candidate epitopes restricted by five bovine MHC class I molecules that are potentially available for presentation to CTLs. The candidate peptide epitopes were identified by using the computer programs available as a part of the Genetics Computer Group package and applying the information on allele-specific peptide motifs and intracellular enzymatic cleavage patterns to the bovine viral diarrhea virus polyprotein. Several candidate peptides were found for each of the bovine lymphocyte antigens (BoLA)-A11, -A20, -HD1, and -HD6 whereas no peptide was found for BoLA-HD7. Based on this finding, the probable contribution of genomic segments of BVDV to the CTL response and strategies for recombinant vaccines are discussed.
