Low Intestinal IL22 Associates With Increased Transplant-Related Mortality After Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation.
Article in Frontiers in immunology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The role of IL-22 in adult patients undergoing allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) is of major interest since animal studies showed a protective and regenerative effect of IL-22 in graft versus host disease (GvHD). However, no clinical data exist on the tissue expression. Here we demonstrate that patients not suffering from transplant-related mortality (TRM) show significantly upregulated IL22 expression during histological and clinical GI-GvHD (p = 0.048 and p = 0.022, respectively). In contrast, in GvHD patients suffering from TRM, IL22 was significantly lower (p = 0.007). Accordingly, lower IL22 was associated with a higher probability of TRM in survival analysis (p = 0.005). In a multivariable competing risk Cox regression analysis, low IL22 was identified as an independent risk factor for TRM (p = 0.007, hazard ratio 2.72, 95% CI 1.32 to 5.61). The expression of IL22 seemed to be microbiota dependent as broad-spectrum antibiotics significantly diminished IL22 expression (p = 0.019). Furthermore, IL22 expression significantly correlated with G-protein coupled receptor (GPR)43 (r = 0.263, p = 0.015) and GPR41 expression (r = 0.284, p = 0.009). In conclusion, our findings reveal an essential role of IL-22 for the prognosis of patients undergoing allogeneic SCT.
