Intracellular cytokines in peritoneal leukocytes relate to lifespan in aging and long-lived female mice.

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
Peritoneal immune cell function is a reliable indicator of aging and longevity in mice and inflammaging is associated with a shorter lifespan. Nevertheless, it is unknown if the content of cytokines in these immune cells is linked to individual differences in lifespan. Therefore, this work aimed to investigate different peritoneal leukocyte populations and their content in intracellular pro-inflammatory (TNF and IL-6) and anti-inflammatory (IL-10) cytokines by flow cytometry in adult (10 months-old, n = 8) and old (18 months-old, n = 20) female Swiss/ICR mice. In addition, old mice were monitored longitudinally throughout their aging process, and the same markers were analyzed at the very old (24 months-old, n = 8) and long-lived (30 months-old, n = 4) ages. The longitudinal follow-up allowed us to relate the investigated parameters to individual lifespans. The results show that long-lived female mice exhibit an adult-like profile in most parameters investigated but also display specific immune adaptations, such as increased CD4+ and CD8+ T cells containing the pro-inflammatory TNF cytokine and CD4+ T cells and macrophages containing the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10. These adaptations may underlie their exceptional longevity. In addition, a negative correlation was obtained between the percentage of cytotoxic T cells, KLRG-1/CD4, large peritoneal macrophages, and the percentage of CD4+ T cells containing IL-6 and macrophages containing IL-10 in old age and lifespan, whereas a positive correlation was found between the CD4/CD8 ratio and the longevity of the animals at the same age. These results highlight the crucial role of peritoneal leukocytes in inflammaging and longevity.
