Distinct T cell subsets in adipose tissue are associated with obesity.
Article in European journal of immunology, 2023. 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
Adipose tissue inflammation is a driving factor for the development of obesity-associated metabolic disturbances, and a role of adipose tissue T cells in initiating the pro-inflammatory signaling is emerging. However, data on human adipose tissue T cells in obesity are limited, reflected by the lack of phenotypic markers to define tissue-resident T cell subsets. In this study, we performed a deep characterization of T cells in blood and adipose tissue depots using multicolor flow cytometry and RNA sequencing. We identified distinct subsets of T cells associated with obesity expressing the activation markers, CD26 and CCR5, and obesity-specific genes that are potentially engaged in activating pro-inflammatory pathway, including ceramide signaling, autophagy, and IL-6 signaling. These findings increase our knowledge on the heterogeneity of T cells in adipose tissue and on subsets that may play a role in obesity-related pathogenesis.
