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

Several "primary atopic disorders" are linked to monogenic defects that attenuate TCR signaling, favoring T helper type 2 (TH2) cell differentiation. Patients with CARD11-associated atopy with dominant interference of NF-κB signaling (CADINS) disease suffer from severe atopy, caused by germline loss-of-function/dominant interfering (LOF/DI) CARD11 variants. The CARD11 scaffold enables TCR-induced activation of NF-κB, mTORC1, and JNK signaling, yet the function of CARD11-dependent JNK signaling in T cells remains nebulous. Here we show that CARD11 is critical for TCR-induced activation of JNK1 and JNK2, as well as canonical JUN/FOS AP-1 family members. Patient-derived CARD11 DI variants attenuated WT CARD11 JNK signaling, mirroring effects on NF-κB. Transcriptome profiling revealed JNK inhibition upregulated TCR-induced expression of GATA3 and NFATC1, key transcription factors for TH2 cell development. Further, impaired CARD11-JNK signaling was linked to enhanced GATA3 expression in CADINS patient T cells. Our findings reveal a novel intrinsic mechanism connecting impaired CARD11-dependent JNK signaling to enhanced GATA3/NFAT2 induction and TH2 cell differentiation in CADINS patients.
