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

Steroid-refractory gut acute graft-versus-host disease (SR-Gut-aGVHD) is the major cause of nonrelapse death after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation. High numbers of donor-type IL-22+ T cells, IL-22-dependent dysbiosis, and loss of antiinflammatory CX3CR1hi mononuclear phagocytes (MNPs) play critical roles in SR-Gut-aGVHD pathogenesis. CEACAM1 on intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) is proposed to regulate bacterial translocation and subsequent immune responses in the intestine. Here, with imaging mass cytometry (IMC), combined scRNA-Seq with ATAC-Seq, and high-dimensional flow cytometry analysis, we show that CEACAM1 expression was enhanced on IECs in murine and human SR-Gut-aGVHD. Ceacam1 deficiency on host IECs effectively prevented SR-Gut-aGVHD in murine models. Ceacam1 deficiency on IECs resulted in (i) higher numbers of IL-22+IL-10+Foxp3+CD4+ peripheral Tregs (pTregs) and lower numbers of conventional IL-22+CD4+ T (Tcon), Th/Tc1, and Th17 cells in the intestine; (ii) higher prevalence of beneficial commensal bacteria that augment colonic pTreg expansion, with lower prevalence of pathogenic bacteria; and (iii) higher numbers of antiinflammatory CD103-CX3CR1hi MNPs that produce indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) and IL-10, with lower numbers of proinflammatory CD103+CX3CR1lo MNPs that produce IL-6. Thus, specifically targeting IEC CEACAM1 represents a promising approach for prevention of SR-Gut-aGVHD.
