Gimme a complex! Resident mononuclear phagocytes in the kidney as monitors of circulating antigens and immune complexes.
Article in Kidney international, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Over the past decade, researchers have made substantial progress in characterizing a network of mononuclear phagocytes in the kidney, which variously have been referred to as resident macrophages or dendritic cells. Two recent studies, published in Cell and Kidney International, have identified these resident macrophages/dendritic cells as local immune monitors of peritubular capillaries for circulating antigens and immune complexes. These cells appear to represent an early line of defense against circulating infectious particles and immune complexes, but the resulting inflammatory response may also contribute to interstitial inflammation and kidney disease progression.
