Interferon-β and FTY720 ameliorate progressive CNS inflammation via SOCS1-associated astrocyte signaling.

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
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune inflammatory disease of the central nervous system (CNS) characterized by initially relapsing-remitting neurological deficits followed by progressive and largely irreversible disability driven by glial and neuronal pathology behind an increasingly restrictive blood–brain barrier, limiting access of peripherally applied therapeutics. Here, we show that combining sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor (S1PR) modulation with CNS-penetrant intranasal interferon-β (nIFN-β) enhances therapeutic effects relative to FTY720 alone in a chronic progressive EAE model. Combined treatment reduces CNS-infiltrating immune cells, decreases pro-inflammatory cytokine production, and augments protective glial programs in vivo, as well as in human astrocyte and microglial cell lines. Transcriptomic and perturbation analyses implicate SOCS1-associated signaling as a modulatory component of treatment-induced glial responses. Together, these findings support further investigation of combinatorial FTY720/nIFN-β strategies targeting CNS-intrinsic inflammatory pathways in progressive MS.
