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 innate immune system adapts its behavior based on previous insults, mounting an enhanced response upon re-exposure. Hematopoietic progenitors in the bone marrow and peripheral innate immune cells can undergo epigenetic and metabolic reprogramming, establishing an innate immune memory known as trained immunity. The concept of trained immunity recently gained relevance in our understanding of how innate immunity is regulated in various diseases. This review explores the role of trained immunity in infections, autoimmune disease, cardiovascular disease, cancer, and neurodegenerative disease. We discuss how trained immunity can provide heterologous protection against infections, as it has been induced for decades by the Bacillus Calmette Guérin vaccine, how it can help counteract immunosuppression, and how it can be inappropriately induced leading to chronic inflammation. By understanding how trained immunity is involved in processes leading to health and disease, novel therapeutic strategies can be developed.
