Lipidated IL-22 Alone or Combined with Immunomodulatory Agents Improves Disease Endpoints and Promotes Mucosal Healing in a Mouse Model of Chronic Dextran Sodium Sulfate-Induced Colitis.

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
backgroundIL-22 facilitates mucosal healing by directly inducing epithelial regeneration and barrier integrity, which is essential for achieving remission and thereby treating inflammatory bowel disease.
aimsHere, we evaluated efficacy of a novel lipidated IL-22 alone and in combination with immunomodulatory agents in addressing chronic dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis in mice and demonstrated action of IL-22 on mucosal healing.
methodsMice were treated with DSS, followed by various doses of lipidated IL-22, anti-TNF antibody, fingolimod, or anti-mouse α4β7 integrin antibody. Additionally, gene expression was determined in colonic biopsies from ulcerative colitis patients to assess effects of IL-22 stimulation.
resultsLipidated IL-22 significantly improved all aspects of chronic DSS-induced colitis in mice, with dose-dependent efficacy. Combinations of a range of immunomodulatory agents with lipidated IL-22 showed further additive reductions in disease activity, significantly greater than those of monotherapies. Immunohistochemistry revealed that lipidated IL-22 increased epithelial cell proliferation and reduced CD3
conclusionsGiven the challenges in achieving long-term remission in IBD due to inflammation and mucosal damage, lipidated IL-22 presents a promising treatment option that directly promotes mucosal healing, unlike traditional immunomodulatory therapies.
