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

The advanced glycosylation end product receptor (RAGE) acts as a recognition receptor and interacts with different types of ligands that form and accumulate in the tissues and circulation, such as diabetes, inflammation, insulin resistance, and obesity. In these environments, RAGE is expressed on the surface of various cells associated with tissue disturbance. This review mainly summarizes the characteristics of RAGE-related signalling, with a particular emphasis on the role of RAGE in the development of obesity. We also briefly describe the phenotypes and characteristics of macrophages and focus on the role of adipose tissue macrophages (ATMs) and the regulatory mechanisms in obesity, diabetes, and other related metabolic diseases. Besides, we will also elaborate on the prospect of new strategies for treating diabetes and obesity-related metabolic diseases by inhibiting RAGE signalling and regulating ATMs recruitment and polarization.
