Phagocytosis: How Macrophages Tune Their Non-professional Counterparts.
Article in Current biology : CB, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
Foreign particles and apoptotic cells are engulfed by professional phagocytes (e.g. macrophages) and non-professional phagocytes (e.g. epithelial cells). These phagocyte populations exchange information to coordinate and prioritise their activities, but the nature of these messages was unknown. Recently, IGF-1 and microvesicles were identified as means of communication between macrophages and epithelia.
