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

Psoriasis (PsO) is a complex immune-mediated disease that afflicts 100 million people. Omilancor is a locally-acting, small molecule that selectively activates the Lanthionine Synthetase C-like 2 (LANCL2) pathway, resulting in immunoregulatory effects at the intersection of immunity and metabolism. Topical omilancor treatment in an imiquimod-induced mouse model of PsO ameliorates disease severity, epidermal hyperplasia and acanthosis. Further, pharmacological activation of LANCL2 results in significant downregulation of proinflammatory markers including local reduction of IL17, and infiltration of proinflammatory cell subsets. These therapeutic effects were further validated in an IL-23 PsO model. This model reported increased preservation of homeostatic skin structure, accompanied by a decreased infiltration of proinflammatory T cell subsets. In CD4+ T cells and Th17 cells, the LANCL2 pathway regulates proinflammatory cytokine production, proliferation and glucose metabolism. Metabolically, the loss of Lancl2 resulted in increased glycolytic rates, lactate production and upregulated enzymatic activity of hexokinase and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). Inhibition of LDH activity abrogated the increased proliferation rate in Lancl2
