TYK2 Variants in B-Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia.
Trial report in Genes, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (B-ALL) is a malignancy of lymphoid progenitor cells with altered genes including the Janus kinase (JAK) gene family. Among them, tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) is involved in signal transduction of cytokines such as interferon (IFN) α/β through IFN-α/β receptor alpha chain (IFNAR1). To search for disease-associated TYK2 variants, bone marrow samples from 62 B-ALL patients at diagnosis were analysed by next-generation sequencing. TYK2 variants were found in 16 patients (25.8%): one patient had a novel mutation at the four-point-one, ezrin, radixin, moesin (FERM) domain (S431G) and two patients had the rare variants rs150601734 or rs55882956 (R425H or R832W). To functionally characterise them, they were generated by direct mutagenesis, cloned in expression vectors, and transfected in TYK2-deficient cells. Under high-IFNα doses, the three variants were competent to phosphorylate STAT1/2. While R425H and R832W induced STAT1/2-target genes measured by qPCR, S431G behaved as the kinase-dead form of the protein. None of these variants phosphorylated STAT3 in in vitro kinase assays. Molecular dynamics simulation showed that TYK2/IFNAR1 interaction is not affected by these variants. Finally, qPCR analysis revealed diminished expression of TYK2 in B-ALL patients at diagnosis compared to that in healthy donors, further stressing the tumour immune surveillance role of TYK2.
