Angel and devil: the protective immunity and pathogenic inflammation of tissue resident memory T cells in ulcerative colitis.
Review in Frontiers in immunology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is an incurable autoimmune disease. Patients with UC endure the burden of recurrent flare-ups and face a substantial economic burden due to long-term medication. The complex etiology and unclear pathogenesis pose a significant challenge to the development of effective and curative treatments. Recent research indicates that local memory at the site of inflammatory intestinal mucosa in UC is closely associated with the persistent presence of tissue-resident memory T (TRM) cells. TRM cells, a subset of memory T cells, exhibit long-lived, low-migration characteristics. These cells reside in tissues, where they provide immediate immune protection while also contributing to chronic, localized inflammation. The presence of TRM cells in the inflamed intestinal mucosa of UC patients is a crucial factor in the recurrence of the disease. However, the process involved in the formation and differentiation of TRM cells within the intestinal mucosa remains poorly understood. Various surface markers, transcriptional networks, and signaling pathways regulate the formation and maintenance of TRM cells in the intestine. To further understand the role of TRM cells in UC pathogenesis, we have summarized the latest findings to pave the way for the development of future targeted therapies.
