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.

Abstract

In this study, we expanded regulatory T cells (Tregs) ex vivo from CD4(+) CD25(+) T cells from cord blood (CB) and CD4(+) CD25(+) CD127(-) T cells from adult peripheral blood (APB) and compared the suppressive functions of the newly generated Tregs. The Tregs from CB and APB were expanded either in two cycles with a polyclonal stimulus or in two cycles with an alloantigen stimulus in the first cycle and a polyclonal stimulus in the second cycle. Cell yield after Treg expansion with polyclonal stimulation was greater than that of Tregs expanded with combined alloantigen and polyclonal stimulation. The expanded Tregs expressed high levels of Foxp3, CD39 and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen-4 and low levels of CD127, interleukin-2 and interferon-γ. After two cycles of expansion, the CB Tregs maintained expression of the GARP gene and showed greater suppressive function than APB Tregs. The CB Tregs that were expanded with two cycles of polyclonal stimulation suppressed not only the polyclonal antigen-driven responder T (T(resp)) cell proliferation but also the HLA mismatched dendritic cell-driven T(resp) cell proliferation. When CB and APB Tregs were expanded with a primary alloantigen stimulus followed by a secondary polyclonal stimulus, the Tregs showed a potent, antigen-specific suppressive capacity. The Tregs expanded with two cycles of polyclonal stimulation from both CB and APB alleviated acute graft-versus-host disease symptoms and prolonged survival in a murine model of graft-versus-host disease. In conclusion, CB Tregs expanded with two cycles of polyclonal stimulation had a stronger immunosuppressive function than APB Tregs. It is feasible to obtain human functional alloantigen-specific Tregs expanded ex vivo from CB and APB in large numbers.
