IL-27 promotes Treg cell expression of CD122 and fitness at homeostasis.

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
Regulatory T (Treg) cells express high levels of the IL-27R, and in the setting of infection and autoimmunity, the cytokine IL-27 promotes Treg cell activities that mitigate tissue pathology. However, IL-27 appears dispensable for Treg cell development and maintenance as lineage-specific depletion of the IL-27R on Treg cells does not impact these populations at steady state. In contrast, when mice were generated in which the Treg compartment comprised a mix of IL-27R-sufficient and -deficient Treg cells, those that lacked IL-27R were at a competitive disadvantage. Aging experiments illustrate that IL-27R-deficient Treg cells are preferentially eroded, and this defect was associated with reduced expression of CD122, the β chain of the IL-2/15R. Moreover, blockade of CD122 led to a similar loss of Treg cells, and in vitro and in vivo studies highlight that IL-27 promotes Treg cell expression of CD122 and improves responsiveness to IL-2/15. These datasets reveal that homeostatic IL-27 signals provide a competitive advantage that shapes the composition of the Treg cell pool by modulating responsiveness to growth factors.
