Exogenous Interleukin-37 Alleviates Hepatitis with Reduced Dendritic Cells and Induced Regulatory T Cells in Acute Murine Cytomegalovirus Infection.

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
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection is globally distributed, and the liver is one of the major targeting organs. So far, the mechanisms for cell and organ damage have not fully been elucidated and the treatments for the infection are mainly at symptoms. IL-37 has shown a protective role in certain inflammatory diseases. In the present study, potential protective effect of exogenous IL-37 on murine cytomegalovirus- (MCMV-) infected hepatitis was evaluated through analyses of serum transaminases, the liver histopathology and cytokine expression, and functional state of dendritic cells (DCs) and regulatory T cells (Tregs). These analyses showed a significant decrease in serum transaminase levels and a lower Ishak histopathologic score at the early stage of MCMV-infected mice with exogenous IL-37 pretreatment. The frequencies of MHC-Ⅱ, CD40, CD80, and CD86 positive DCs in the liver and spleen were decreased significantly at 7 days postinfection (dpi) in MCMV-infected mice with IL-37 pretreatment when compared with those without the pretreatment, while the total number of DCs in the liver was reduced in IL-37-pretreated mice. The induction of Tregs in the spleen was enhanced at dpi 3 with IL-37 pretreatment in MCMV-infected mice. The mRNA expression levels of cytokines in the liver were decreased significantly (IL-1
