Expression profile of porcine scavenger receptor A and its role in bacterial phagocytosis by macrophages.
Article in Developmental and comparative immunology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Expression of scavenger receptor A (SRA) in macrophages plays key role in macrophage mediated uptake of microbes. However, little is known about the role of porcine scavenger receptor A (pSRA) in phagocytic function of macrophages in swine species. In this study, polyclonal antibody against pSRA was generated by using recombinant proteins to study expression and function of pSRA. We report broad expression of pSRA in different tissues. In the lungs, pSRA is mainly expressed by alveolar macrophages. Blockade of class A scavenger receptor by fucoidan treatment demonstrates that pSRA has role in bacterial phagocytosis by macrophages. Furthermore, importance of SRA-mediated bacterial phagocytosis has been shown using CHO cell line expressing pSRA. In summary, these findings reveal that pSRA, which is predominantly expressed in alveolar macrophages is likely to be an important receptor mediating recognition and uptake of bacteria in pig lungs.
