Characterization of IL-17-producing T helper cells-like autoreactive T cells in aged mice.

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
IL-17-producing T helper cells (Th17) are attracting attention as a new CD4-positive subset of T cells, reported to be responsible for various autoimmune diseases through stimulation of the release of inflammatory cytokines from target cells. However, most investigations of Th17 mediation of autoimmune diseases have focused on the experimental autoimmune models derived from young animals, with few studies that have analyzed physiological factors such as aging. The present study analyzed autoreactive T cells established in a syngeneic mixed lymphocyte culture (sMLC) from aged mice and examined their similarity with Th17. IL-17-producing autoreactive CD4-intermediate T cells were observed in the sMLC; these expressed several stem cell markers or an immunosuppressive receptor PD-1 on the cell surface and so seemed to be different to typical Th17 cells. RT-PCR analysis revealed that purified Th17-like cells also expressed Il17a, Il17f, Il23r, Rorc and Tdt mRNA, but not Rag1 or Rag2 mRNA. These findings that it is likely that Th17-like cells are involved in autoimmune responses in aged mice.
