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

Interleukin (IL)-6 signaling through its soluble receptor (IL-6 transsignaling) directs transition between innate and acquired immune responses by orchestrating the chemokine-directed attraction and apoptotic clearance of leukocytes. Through analysis of mononuclear cell infiltration in WT and IL-6-deficient mice during peritoneal inflammation, we now report that IL-6 selectively governs T cell infiltration by regulating chemokine secretion (CXCL10, CCL4, CCL5, CCL11, and CCL17) and chemokine receptor (CCR3, CCR4, CCR5, and CXCR3) expression on the CD3+ infiltrate. Although blockade of IL-6 trans-signaling prevented chemokine release, chemokine receptor expression remained unaltered suggesting that this response is regulated by IL-6 itself. To dissect the signaling events promoting T cell migration, inflammation was established in knock-in mice expressing mutated forms of the universal signal-transducing element for IL-6-related cytokines gp130. In mice (gp130Y757F/Y757F) deficient in SHP2 and SOCS3 binding, but presenting hyperactivation of STAT1/3, T cell recruitment and CCL5 expression was enhanced. Conversely, both of these parameters were suppressed in mice with ablated gp130-mediated STAT1/3 activation (gp130DeltaSTAT/DeltaSTAT). T cell migration was related to STAT3 activity, because monoallelic deletion of Stat3 in gp130(Y757F/Y757F) mice (gp130Y757F/Y757F:Stat3+/-) corrected the exaggerated responses observed in gp130Y757F/Y757F mice. Consequently, STAT3 plays a defining role in IL-6-mediated T cell migration.
