Tuft cells in the intestine, immunity and beyond.
Review in Nature reviews. Gastroenterology & hepatology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 22 papers.
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
Tuft cells have gained substantial attention over the past 10 years due to numerous reports linking them with type 2 immunity and microorganism-sensing capacity in many mucosal tissues. This heightened interest is fuelled by their unique ability to produce an array of biological effector molecules, including IL-25, allergy-related eicosanoids, and the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, enabling downstream responses in diverse cell types. Operating through G protein-coupled receptor-mediated signalling pathways reminiscent of type II taste cells in oral taste buds, tuft cells emerge as chemosensory sentinels that integrate luminal conditions, eliciting appropriate responses in immune, epithelial and neuronal populations. How tuft cells promote tissue alterations and adaptation to the variety of stimuli at mucosal surfaces has been explored in multiple studies in the past few years. Since the initial recognition of the role of tuft cells, the discovery of diverse tuft cell effector functions and associated feedback loops have also revealed the complexity of tuft cell biology. Although earlier work largely focused on extraintestinal tissues, novel genetic tools and recent mechanistic studies on intestinal tuft cells established fundamental concepts of tuft cell activation and functions. This Review is an overview of intestinal tuft cells, providing insights into their development, signalling and interaction modules in immunity and other states.
