Loss of STAT2 may be dangerous in a world filled with viruses.
Article in The Journal of clinical investigation, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Type I IFNs, a family of cytokines that signal through a single receptor and signaling mechanism, were originally named for their ability to interfere with viral replication. While type II IFN (IFN-γ) largely protects against intracellular bacteria and protozoa, type I IFNs largely protect from viral infections. Inborn errors of immunity in humans have demonstrated this point and its clinical relevance with increasing clarity. In this issue of the JCI, Bucciol, Moens, et al. report the largest series of patients to date with deficiency of STAT2, an important protein for type I IFN signaling. Individuals with STAT2 loss demonstrated a clinical phenotype of viral susceptibility and inflammatory complications, many of which remain poorly understood. These findings further illustrate the very specific and critical role that type I IFNs play in host defense against viruses.
