STAT1 drives the immune landscape of murine Toll-like receptor 9-induced liver inflammation.

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
Background & Aims: Persistent activation of Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) has been implicated in eliciting a cytokine storm syndrome, leading to systemic and hepatic inflammation in mice and humans. This study investigates the unexplored role of STAT1, a transcription factor in pathogen-driven immune responses, in mediating TLR9-induced liver inflammation. Methods: We compared clinical, histological, and laboratory characteristics (in total nine parameters) of TLR9-induced liver inflammation between wild-type (WT) mice and STAT1-deficient ( Results: Conclusions: Type I and II IFN-induced STAT1 activation drives TLR9-induced liver inflammation, and support further exploration of JAK1/2 inhibitors, which indirectly inhibit STAT1 activity, in patients with cytokine storm syndromes and other inflammatory liver disorders. Impact and implications: Our study reveals that interferon-induced STAT1 signaling is a central mediator of both systemic and hepatic inflammation during a TLR9-induced cytokine storm. Based on these findings, we support the therapeutic use of JAK1/2 inhibitors, such as ruxolitinib and baricitinib, which indirectly suppress STAT1 activity, in patients with cytokine storm syndromes and inflammatory liver disorders to alleviate both systemic and hepatic symptoms. Notably, our data also highlight the promise of direct STAT1 inhibition as a more and potentially refined approach for intervention.
