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

Background

methodsT cells and B cells isolated from the spleens of three DHA-treated mice and three control mice underwent single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) using the 10× Genomics Chromium system. Comprehensive analyses included cell clustering, signaling pathway enrichment, pseudotime trajectory analysis, and cellular communication assessment using unbiased computational methods.

resultsDHA treatment significantly reduced kidney inflammation and altered the proportions of splenic T cells and B cells, particularly decreasing plasma cells. Molecular profiling of effector CD4+ T cells showed a significant reduction in several inflammation-related signaling pathways in DHA-treated mice. Cellular communication analysis indicated altered interactions between effector CD4+ T cells and B cells in MRL/lpr mice after DHA treatment.

conclusionsOur findings reveal changes in cellular composition and signaling pathways in splenic T cells and B cells of MRL/lpr mice following DHA treatment. DHA may inhibit B-cell differentiation into plasma cells by modulating effector CD4+ T cells, potentially through the regulation of HIF1α and ligand-receptor interactions, enhancing our understanding of DHA's mechanisms in SLE treatment.
