Information processing during phagocytosis.
Review in Nature reviews. Immunology, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 280 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
Phagocytosis - the process by which macrophages, dendritic cells and other myeloid phagocytes internalize diverse particulate targets - is a key mechanism of innate immunity. The molecular and cellular events that underlie the binding of targets to a phagocyte and their engulfment into phagosomes have been extensively studied. More recent data suggest that the process of phagocytosis itself provides information to myeloid phagocytes about the nature of the targets they are engulfing and that this helps to tailor inflammatory responses. In this Review, we discuss how such information is acquired during phagocytosis and how it is processed to coordinate an immune response.
