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

backgroundAdoptive transfer of regulatory T cells (Tregs) has been proposed as a next-generation treatment approach for the treatment of various inflammatory or autoimmune disorders(Amini et al., 2022; Bluestone et al., 2023, 2015; Dall'Era et al., 2019; Chandran et al., 2017; Laukova and Glatman Zaretsky, 2023; Voskens et al., 2023; Canavan et al., 2016

objectivesWe investigated the therapeutic effects of transfer of BM niche Tregs for IBD using mouse models of experimental colitis. To identify the key effector molecule of niche Tregs, we further examined the roles of cell-surface ectoenzyme CD39 expressed at high levels by BM niche Tregs. STUDY

designMouse colitis was induced by administering dextran sulfate sodium salt. Subsequently, the mice received intravenous injections of BM niche Tregs, BM non-niche Tregs, lymph node Tregs, or vehicle alone. We compared these treatment effects on clinical scores, histopathological features and profiles of immune cells. We also tested how targeted deletion of CD39 in the adoptively transferred Tregs impacted experimental outcomes.

resultsThe transfer of as few as 1.5 × 10

conclusionWe show robust therapeutic effects of the transfer of BM niche Tregs in the experimental model of colitis. Donor niche Tregs mediate anti-inflammatory and pro-regenerative effects via Treg CD39. Our work suggests the transfer of BM niche Tregs is a promising approach to treat colitic disorders and boost tissue regeneration.
