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

Brain macrophages and microglia are centrally involved in immune surveillance of the central nervous system. Upon inflammatory stimuli, they become reactive and release key molecules to prevent further damage to the neuronal network. In the hypothalamic area, perivascular macrophages (PVMs) are the first line of host defence against pathogenic organisms, particles and/or substances from the blood. They are distributed throughout the circumventricular organ median eminence, wrapping endothelial cells from fenestrated portal capillaries and in the hypothalamic vascular network, where they are localised in the perivascular space of the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Some studies have indicated that PVMs from the hypothalamus increase the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase and vascular endothelial growth factor upon feeding for a long time on a high-fat diet. This adaptive response contributes to the impairment of glucose uptake, facilitates BBB leakage and leads to increased lipid and inflammatory cell influx towards the hypothalamic parenchyma. Despite these early findings, there is still a lack of studies exploring the mechanisms by which PVMs contribute to the development of obesity-related hypothalamic dysfunction, particularly at the early stages when there is chemotaxis of peripheral myeloid cells into the mediobasal hypothalamus. Here, we reviewed the studies involving the ontogeny, hallmarks and main features of brain PVMs in vascular homeostasis, inflammation and neuroendocrine control. This review provides a framework for understanding the potential involvement of PVMs in diet-induced hypothalamic inflammation.
