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.

Abstract

Fibrinogen-like protein 1 (FGL1) was recently identified as a major ligand of lymphocyte-activation gene-3 (LAG-3) on activated T cells and serves as an immune suppressive molecule for regulation of immune homeostasis. However, whether FGL1 has therapeutic potential for use in the T cell-induced the autoimmune disease, rheumatoid arthritis (RA), is still unknown. Here, we attempted to evaluate the effect of FGL1 protein on arthritis progression. We also evaluated potential adverse events in a collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) mouse model. We first confirmed that soluble Fgl1 protein could specifically bind to surface Lag-3 receptor on 3T3-Lag-3 cells and further inhibit interleukin (IL-2) and interferon gamma (IFNγ) secretion from activated primary mouse T cells by 95% and 43%, respectively. Intraperitoneal administration of Fgl1 protein significantly decreased the inflammatory cytokine level (i.e., IL-1β and IL-6) in local paw tissue, and prevented joint inflammation, cellular infiltration, bone deformation and attenuated collagen-induced arthritis progression
