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

backgroundGlucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2) reduces systemic and gut inflammation while preserving mucosal integrity. Preclinical and clinical reports implicate GLP-2 receptor (GLP-2R) agonism as a potential therapy for graft vs. host disease (GvHD).

methodsHere we assessed whether enhanced vs. loss of GLP-2R signaling modifies gut injury and inflammation in experimental murine acute GvHD (aGvHD). Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) was performed using bone marrow and splenocytes from BALB/cJ donor mice to induce aGvHD in C57BL/6J recipients. Chimerism was determined by flow cytometry of immune cell compartments. Inflammation was assessed by measuring circulating cytokines and histological scoring of gut mucosal damage. GLP-2 responsivity was assessed using histology and gene expression analyses. The gut microbiome was assessed by 16S rRNA sequencing.

resultsAllogeneic chimerism was >90% in peripheral blood and in the gut epithelial compartment. Gut GLP-2R signaling was preserved following allogeneic bone marrow transplantation. Surprisingly, GLP-2R agonism using teduglutide did not reduce circulating cytokines, gut injury, immune cell infiltration or the severity of aGvHD. In contrast, transplant recipient Glp2r

conclusionsActivation of GLP-2R signaling did not reduce the severity of experimental aGvHD, failing to replicate a previous study using an identical aGvHD protocol. Nevertheless, loss of GLP-2R signaling in transplant recipients decreased survival and increased bacteremia, implicating an essential role for endogenous GLP-2R signaling in maintaining barrier function in the context of immune-mediated gut epithelial injury.
