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

As heterogeneous immune cells, macrophages mount effective responses to various internal and external changes during disease progression. Macrophage polarization, rather than macrophage heterogenization, is often used to describe the functional differences between macrophages. While macrophage polarization partially contributes to heterogeneity, it does not completely explain the concept of macrophage heterogeneity. At the same time, there are abundant and sophisticated endogenous and exogenous substances that can affect macrophage heterogeneity. While the research on endogenous factors has been systematically reviewed, the findings on exogenous factors have not been well summarized. Hence, we reviewed the characteristics and inducing factors of heterogeneous macrophages to reveal their functional plasticity as well as their targeting manoeuvreability. In the process of constructing and analysing a network organized by disease-related cells and molecules, paying more attention to heterogeneous macrophages as mediators of this network may help to explore a novel entry point for early prevention of and intervention in disease.
