Repeated immune activation with low-dose lipopolysaccharide attenuates the severity of Huntington's disease in R6/2 transgenic mice.
Article in Animal cells and systems, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Huntington's disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by a mutation in the huntingtin gene. Previously, therapeutic approaches using anti-inflammatory agents were reportedly not effective for preventing HD progression. Since whether immune responses contribute to the onset of HD is not entirely understood, we herein investigated the role of immune activation in HD using the R6/2 transgenic (Tg) HD model mouse. IL12 production and the expression of costimulatory molecules (e.g. CD86 and CD40) on innate immune cells (DCs and macrophages) were diminished in the disease stage of R6/2 Tg mice. Moreover, the number of adaptive T cells (CD4
