Comparison of a selective STAT3 inhibitor with a dual STAT3/STAT1 inhibitor using a dextran sulfate sodium murine colitis model: new insight into the debate on selectivity.
Article in Annals of gastroenterology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Recent advances in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease include antitumor necrosis factor antibodies and the Janus kinase inhibitor tofacitinib, approved for ulcerative colitis. Janus kinase recruits signal transducers and activators of transcriptions (STAT), which are promising targets in inflammatory bowel diseases. However few inhibitors have been evaluated, and their selectivity with respect to STAT1 and STAT3 remains controversial. Here, we investigated the therapeutic potential of a selective inhibitor vs. a non-selective, closely related compound, in a dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) murine colitis model. Methods: Thirty Swiss/CD-1 male mice were used in this study. They were divided into a healthy control group, a colitis-DSS control group, a compound (cpd) 23-treated group, a cpd 46-treated group and an icariin-treated group. For the coadministration experiment with rutin, the cpd 46-treated group and the icariin-treated group were replaced by the oral rutin-treated group and the coadministration rutin/cpd 23-treated group. The effect of the tested inhibitors was also assessed by quantification of proinflammatory markers. Results: The selective inhibitor had a significantly greater effect than the dual inhibitor on the disease activity index. We also noticed in curative treatment a significant decrease in the most abundant proinflammatory biomarker present in neutrophilic granulocytes, myeloperoxidase and on proinflammatory cytokines, including tumor necrosis factor-α, interferon-γ, interleukins -6 and -23, with a mild synergy with rutin, the glycoside of quercetin. Conclusion: The current study shows how STAT3 selective inhibitors can exert a significant therapeutic effect in the treatment of experimental DSS-colitis.
