TCDD attenuates EAE through induction of FasL on B cells and inhibition of IgG production.
Article in Toxicology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
Previously we demonstrated that 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) suppressed experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), a model to study multiple sclerosis (MS), through induction of regulatory T cells (Tregs) and suppression of effector T cell function in the spleen. Since B cells and specifically regulatory B cells (Bregs) have been shown to be so critical in the pathology associated with EAE and MS, we wanted to determine whether TCDD could also induce Bregs. We specifically hypothesized that a Fas ligand (FasL)+ Breg population would be induced by TCDD in EAE thereby triggering apoptosis in Fas-expressing effector T cells as one mechanism to account for inhibition of T cell function by TCDD. TCDD (0.1-2.5 μg/kg/day administered orally for 12 days) modestly increased the percentage of FasL + B cells in the spleen and spinal cord in TCDD-treated EAE mice. However, we did not detect significant increases in percentages of FasL + B cells using TCDD in vitro in mouse splenocytes or human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). Part of the modest effect by TCDD was likely related to the localized expression of FasL; for instance, in the spleen, FasL was more highly expressed by IgM
