Influence of interleukin-2 deficiency on the generation of autoimmune B cells.
Article in Journal of autoimmunity. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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 production of auto-antibodies is one of the predominant characteristics of autoimmune disorders. Because IL-2 deficient mice develop autoimmunity, we asked how IL-2 deficiency might impair endogenous mechanisms of B cell tolerance. To this end, we mated BALB/c anti-dsDNA H chain knock-in mice, in which B cells producing anti-dsDNA antibodies are properly regulated, with IL-2 deficient mice and assessed the phenotype of their offspring. IL-2 deficient mice expressing the anti-dsDNA H chain knock-in allele developed anti-dsDNA antibodies of both IgM and IgG isotypes. Production of these antibodies occurred through the disruption of several mechanisms of endogenous tolerance, including deletion, maturational arrest, and follicular exclusion. In summary, our results suggest that IL-2 plays an important role in regulating B cell tolerance.
