Optical Control of Cytokine Signaling via Bioinspired, Polymer-Induced Latency.
Article in Biomacromolecules, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Cytokine signaling is challenging to study and therapeutically exploit as the effects of these proteins are often pleiotropic. A subset of cytokines can, however, achieve signal specificity via association with latency-inducing proteins, which cage the cytokine until disrupted by discreet biological stimuli. Inspired by this precision, here, we describe a strategy for synthetic induction of cytokine latency via modification with photolabile polymers that mimic latency while attached then restore protein activity in response to light, thus controlling the magnitude, duration, and location of cytokine signals. We characterize the high dynamic range of cytokine activity modulation and find that polymer-induced latency, alone, can prolong in vivo circulation and bias receptor subunit binding. We further show that protein derepression can be achieved with a near single-cell resolution and demonstrate the feasibility of transcutaneous photoactivation. Future extensions of this approach could enable multicolor, optical reprogramming of cytokine signaling networks and more precise immunotherapies.
