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

The key role of nucleic acid sensing receptors in the development of autoimmune and autoinflammatory diseases is becoming increasingly apparent. Activation of these sensors has been attributed to the failure of professional scavenger cells to adequately clear cell debris, in many cases due to defective scavenger receptors. However, as now summarized in this review, numerous gain-of-function mutations in the nucleic acid sensing receptors, or in molecules that regulate sensor activity, have now been evaluated in gene-targeted murine strains, and critical components of their downstream pathways have been identified as therapeutic targets. In addition, we are beginning to understand how DNases and RNases play crucial roles in both generating and eliminating the distinct ligands that engage the various nucleic acid sensors. Murine models of disease have further provided important insights regarding the function of and synergy between individual endosomal and cytosolic receptors, as well as cell type restricted functions.
