Type 1 interferon signature and allograft inflammatory factor-1 contribute to refractoriness to TNF inhibition in ankylosing spondylitis.
Article in Nature communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory arthritis that primarily affects the enthesis and may culminate in bony ankylosis of the spine. Despite TNF inhibitor (TNFi) being foundational in managing active inflammation, 30-40% of patients with AS remain non-responsive. Through longitudinal and multi-omics profiling of peripheral blood mononuclear cells from TNFi-receiving patients with AS, here we reveal that elevated type I IFN signatures at baseline are associated with poor TNFi response, leading to a paradoxical enhancement of IFN signatures and Th17 responses following TNFi therapy. Among type I IFN-related genes, we identify and validate AIF-1 as a predictive biomarker reflecting the inherent IFN signature that differentiates responders from non-responders. AIF-1 also contributes to an inflammatory cycle by increasing IFNα receptor expression and Th17 responses. In summary, our findings advocate for a personalized approach to managing AS by considering individual variations in AIF-1 levels and IFN signatures.
