IL-23 drives uveitis by acting on a population of tissue-resident entheseal T cells.
Article in JCI insight, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Recurrent acute anterior uveitis is a frequent extra-articular manifestation of the axial spondyloarthropathies (AxSpA): chronic inflammatory diseases affecting the spine, enthesis, peripheral joints, skin, and gastrointestinal tract. Pathology in AxSpA has been associated with local tissue-resident populations of IL-23 responsive lymphoid cells. Here we characterize a population of ocular T cell defined by CD3+CD4-CD8-CD69+γδTCR+IL-23R+ that reside within the anterior uvea as an ocular entheseal analogue of the mouse eye. Localized cytokine expression demonstrates that uveal IL-23R+ IL-17A-producing cells are both necessary and sufficient to drive uveitis in response to IL-23. This T cell population is also present in humans, occupying extravascular tissues of the anterior uveal compartment. Consistent with the concept of IL-23 as a unifying mediator in AxSpA, we present evidence that IL-23 can also act locally on tissue resident T cells in the anterior compartment of the eye at sites analogous to the enthesis to drive ocular inflammation.
