Regulatory T cells in cardiac allograft vasculopathy: from mechanistic insights to clinical tolerance.
Review in Frontiers in immunology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) is the primary impairment that influences the long-term prognosis of transplanted hearts. CAV is characterized by diffuse intimal hyperplasia of the coronary arteries, which is mediated by chronic inflammation, the alloimmune response, and vascular remodeling. Current immunosuppressive regimens effectively control acute rejection but have limited efficacy in preventing CAV and are associated with significant adverse effects upon long-term use. Regulatory T cells (Tregs) are essential for preserving immunological homeostasis and facilitating transplantation tolerance. They are pivotal in suppressing the activation of effector T cells (Teffs), modulating local inflammation, and postponing the progression of CAV. This review comprehensively elucidates the pathophysiology of and diagnostic advancements in CAV, emphasizes the phenotypic heterogeneity, immunosuppressive mechanisms, and protective role of Tregs in heart transplantation, and thoroughly discuss the interplay of PD-1/PD-L1, IL-33, IL-6, CTLA-4, fatty acid oxidation (FAO), and other signaling pathways in modulating Treg function and CAV pathogenesis. In terms of the translational medicine, the adoptive infusion of
