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

rationaleThymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) and IL-33 are alarmins implicated in eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) pathogenesis by activating multiple cells, including mast cells (MCs). Whether TSLP or IL-33 have a role in EoE and whether their activities are distinct requires further investigation.

methodsExperimental EoE was induced in wild type (WT) Il33

resultsTSLP and IL-33 were overexpressed in human and experimental EoE. Human and mouse esophageal MCs displayed the highest level of Crlf2 (TSLPR) compared to other immune cells. Crlf2

conclusionTSLP and IL-33 have non-redundant functions in experimental EoE. This study highlights TSLP as an upstream regulator of IL-13 and a potential therapeutic target for EoE.
