The role of VISTA engagement in limiting neutrophil-mediated inflammation.
Article in Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
A growing body of evidence suggests that the immune checkpoint inhibitory receptor VISTA plays a central role in the regulation of innate immunity in the settings of inflammatory diseases and cancer. Neutrophils are among the cells that have the highest membrane density of surface VISTA. In this study, targeting VISTA on neutrophils with a monoclonal antibody resulted in a striking reduction in their lipopolysaccharide (LPS)- and chemokine-induced peripheral accumulation but did not reduce neutrophil levels at steady state. Fc receptor engagement and macrophages were required for the effects of anti-VISTA antibody on neutrophils. Concomitant with reduced peripheral neutrophil numbers, targeting VISTA increased neutrophil clearance by macrophages in the liver. In a murine model of neutrophil-mediated arthritis, anti-VISTA antibody treatment ameliorated disease severity, which was associated with reduced myeloperoxidase activity in the joints. These studies identify a novel therapeutic opportunity for targeting VISTA to control neutrophil-mediated inflammation and tissue injury.
