1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

introductionAlthough it is believed that chronic inflammatory and degenerative diseases of the central nervous system are mediated by autoimmune Th17 cells, the underlying mechanisms remain largely unexplored. Recent studies and our research have revealed that Sp3 was blocked in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients and experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). However, it remained unclear why it is silent and how it regulates Th17 cell differentiation in MS.

objectivesThis study aimed to explore the impact of Sp3 on Th17 cell-mediated EAE and the underlying mechanism.

methodsThe effect of Sp3 on the clinical symptoms of EAE was evaluated by scoring, histochemistry, and fast blue (FB) techniques, scRNA-seq data analysis, flow cytometry, ELISA, PCR, WB, immunofluorescence and reporter gene techniques were used to explore the molecular mechanism of Sp3 regulating Th17 cell differentiation.

resultsInjection of overexpression Sp3 lentivirus could significantly ameliorate the EAE progress and clinical symptoms and prevent the polarization of Th1 and Th17 cells both in vivo and in vitro. We confirmed the occurrence of EAE in Sp3

conclusionThus, our study suggests a novel mechanism involving miR-223/Sp3/Socs3/TGF-β signaling as a potential therapeutic strategy for targeting Th17 cells in immunotherapy.
