CD8 T cell-derived perforin regulates macrophage-mediated inflammation in a murine model of gout.
Article in Clinical rheumatology, 2024. 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
objectivesGout is characterized by hyperuricemia and recurrent inflammatory episodes caused by intra-articular crystal deposition of monosodium urate (MSU). There is a clear relationship between gout and metabolic syndrome. Recent evidence indicates that perforin plays a role in regulating glucose homeostasis and provides protection in diet-induced non-alcoholic steatohepatitis models. However, the impact of perforin on immune inflammation in gout remains unclear.
methodsWe induced acute gout models in both wild-type (WT) mice and Prf1
resultsIn this study, Prf1
conclusionsPerforin from CD8 T cells limits joint inflammation in mice with acute gout by downregulating macrophage-mediated inflammation. Key Points • Perforin deficiency increased swelling in the ankle joints of mice upon MSU injection. • Perforin deficiency is associated with increased immune cell recruitment and severe joint damage in gout. • Perforin regulated CD8 T cell accumulation in gout and promoted CD8 T cell cytotoxicity towards M0 and M1 macrophages. • CD8 T cell-derived perforin regulated pro-inflammatory cytokine secretion of macrophage.
