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

Both Il2(-/-) mice and Scurfy (Sf) mutant mice that are deficient in FoxP3, develop multi-organ inflammation but only the latter display severe skin and lung inflammation. In contrast, Sf.Il2(-/-) double mutant mice do not display skin inflammation and markedly reduced lung inflammation. In this review, we summarize our recent findings based on microarray, q-PCR and functional studies of 10 Sf double mutant mice. These studies revealed novel pro-inflammatory functions of IL-2 in regulating inflammation in an organ-specific manner. IL-2 exerts its "organ-specific" pro-inflammatory function by regulating the migration and retention of CD4(+) T-cells (both Th1 and Th2) specifically to the skin and lung. In addition, IL-2 is also required for regulating the Th2 cytokine response during T-cell activation. Further studies on these IL-2-regulated genes will help in identifying novel targets for intervention in inflammatory diseases of skin and lung.
