Keratinocyte VISTA attenuates UV light-induced skin injury by suppressing cutaneous type I interferon (IFN-I) response.

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
Persistent production of type I interferons (IFN-Is) is a hallmark of cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE). Ultraviolet (UV) light stimulates IFN-I response in the skin and exacerbates CLE. Here, we identify V-type immunoglobulin domain-containing suppressor of T cell activation (VISTA) as a negative regulator of both basal and UV-induced IFN-I responses in the skin and show that VISTA limits skin photosensitivity in an IFN-I-dependent manner, in part through Stimulator of Interferon Genes (STING). Furthermore, we demonstrate a novel role for VISTA in keratinocytes both at steady state and in response to UV light. Conditional deletion of VISTA in epidermal keratinocytes results in >10-fold increase in the basal skin IFN-I score and a heightened UV-induced skin injury score, which is dependent on IFN-I signaling. VISTA-targeting monoclonal antibodies suppress UV-induced IFN-I response in human keratinocytes and in mice expressing human VISTA
