S-TIR-ring up TLR7 and TLR9: signaling domain substitutions clarify the TLR paradox.
Article in The Journal of clinical investigation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
In systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), autoimmunity often develops toward self nucleic acids. The nucleic acid receptors TLR7 and TLR9, which sense RNA and DNA, respectively, are critical for the generation of pathogenic autoimmune antibodies. Despite similarities in their downstream signaling cascades, these receptors play opposing roles in most mouse lupus models: TLR7 promotes disease, while TLR9 provides protection - an observation often referred to as "the TLR paradox." To understand the basis of this dichotomy, Leibler et al. created genetically edited lupus-prone mice in which TLR7 receptors express the TLR intracellular signaling domain (TIR) that corresponds to TLR9, or vice versa. Their results revealed that the TIR domains contribute to the receptors' opposing roles in SLE, shedding light into the TLR paradox in autoimmunity.
