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

Introduction: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is characterized by chronic, relapsing inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. Genetic factors, including variants in T-cell activation Rho GTPase-activating protein (TAGAP), contribute to disease susceptibility and severity. Methods: A newly identified TAGAP coding variant E147K was examined by GTP hydrolysis assay. To clarify the role of TAGAP in human immune regulation, CRISPR knockout approaches were employed to study functional changes of human myeloid and T cells. Murine studies, including anti-CD3 antibody injection and CD4 Results: IBD-risk-associated TAGAP variant E147K exhibited enhanced GTPase-activating activity. In human innate and adaptive immune cells, TAGAP restrained cell activation, migration, phagocytosis, and proinflammatory cytokine release. TAGAP deficiency led to significantly increased Th17 cell accumulation due to reduced apoptosis in the murine small intestine and exacerbated chronic intestinal inflammation. Discussion: These findings demonstrated the role of TAGAP in immune responses and homeostasis. The E147K variant underscores TAGAP's protective function in IBD, and further investigation is warranted to translate these insights into therapeutic strategies for autoimmune diseases.
