1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a complex autoimmune disease characterized by multilayered dysregulation of immune cell homeostasis, spanning B cell effector dysfunction, T follicular helper (Tfh) cell hyperactivity, and plasmacytoid dendritic cell (pDC) tolerance breakdown. Advances in high-parameter immunophenotyping, single-cell multiomics profiling, and spatial multiomics have redefined SLE pathogenesis, revealing stage-specific immune network perturbations. These discoveries have propelled mechanism-driven therapeutic strategies, including CD19-targeted chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T) therapy for B cell depletion, disruption of T-B cell synaptic signaling (CD40L inhibitors), and restoration of pDC tolerance (anti-BDCA2 antibodies). While patient heterogeneity poses challenges for universal therapeutic efficacy, emerging strategies integrating molecular endotyping and cellular biomarkers hold promise for overcoming these limitations. By aligning targeted therapies with the immunophenotypic signatures of individual patients, precision medicine approaches are expected to optimize treatment efficacy, minimize off-target effects, and ultimately enhance long-term clinical outcomes in SLE. This review synthesizes current insights into how immune cell perturbations contribute to SLE pathogenesis, modulate disease flares, and determine therapeutic refractoriness, with a critical synthesis of recent clinical trial outcomes.
