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

While group-2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) are highly proliferative in allergic inflammation, the removal of overactivated ILC2s in allergic diseases has not been investigated. We previously showed that chronic airway allergy induces "exhausted-like" dysfunctional ILC2s expressing T cell immunoreceptor with Ig and ITIM domains (TIGIT). However, the physiological relevance of these cells in chronic allergy remains elusive. To precisely identify and monitor TIGIT+ ILC2s, we generated TIGIT lineage tracer mice. Chronic allergy stably induced TIGIT+ ILC2s, which were highly activated, apoptotic, and were quickly removed from sites of chronic allergy. Transcripts from coding genes were globally suppressed in the cells, possibly due to reduced chromatin accessibility. Cell death in TIGIT+ ILC2s was enhanced by interactions with CD155 expressed on macrophages, whereas genetic ablation of Tigit or blockade by anti-TIGIT antagonistic antibodies promoted ILC2 survival, thereby deteriorating chronic allergic inflammation. Our work demonstrates that TIGIT shifts the fate of ILC2s toward activation-induced cell death, which could present a new therapeutic target for chronic allergies.
