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

Persistent irritants that are resistant to innate and cognate immunity induce granulomas. These macrophage-dominated lesions that partially isolate the healthy tissue from the irritant and the irritant induced inflammation. Particles, toxins, autoantigens and infectious agents can induce granulomas. The corresponding lesions can be protective for the host but they can also cause damage and such damage has been associated with the pathology of more than a hundred human diseases. Recently, multiple molecular mechanisms underlying how normal macrophages transform into granuloma-inducing macrophages have been discovered and new information has been gathered, indicating how these lesions are initiated, spread and regulated. In this review, differences between the innate and cognate granuloma pathways are discussed by summarizing how the dendritic cell - T cell axis changes granulomatous immunity. Granuloma lesions are highly dynamic and depend on continuous cell replacement. This feature provides new therapeutic approaches to treat granulomatous diseases.
