BTNL2 promotes colitis-associated tumorigenesis in mice by regulating IL-22 production.
Article in EMBO reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Interleukin 22 (IL-22) has an important role in colorectal tumorigenesis and many colorectal diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease and certain infections. However, the regulation of IL-22 production in the intestinal system is still unclear. Here, we present evidence that butyrophilin-like protein 2 (BTNL2) is required for colorectal IL-22 production, and BTNL2 knockout mice show decreased colonic tumorigenesis and more severe colitis phenotypes than control mice due to defective production of IL-22. Mechanistically, BTNL2 acts on group 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3s), CD4
