CD40L-Activated DC Promotes Th17 Differentiation and Inhibits Th2 Differentiation in Sepsis-Induced Lung Injury via cGAS-STING Signaling.

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
Immune hemostasis due to an infection plays a vital role in sepsis-induced multiple organ dysfunction. Dendritic cells (DC) and T helper (Th) cells are the key members of the immune system maintaining immune homeostasis. This study aimed to explore the effect and mechanism of CD40L on the activation of DC and activated DC-induced Th2/Th17 differentiation. A CD40L knockout and cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) mouse model was established via cecal ligation. HE staining was used to evaluate the pathological changes. The gene expressions were studied using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), while a transwell system was used to perform the co-culture of DC and T-cells. Flow cytometry was performed to detect the subtype of T and DC cells. ELISA was used to assess the amount of inflammatory factors. CD40L was highly expressed in the plasma of CLP mice. Knock out of CD40L inhibited the activation of DC cell and Th17 differentiation while promoting the Th2 differentiation. The mechanistic investigations revealed that CD40L promoted the activation of cGAS-STING pathway. Rescue experiments indicated that CD40L mediated DC activation via cGAS-STING signaling. Moreover, co-culturing of CD and CD
