Visualizing P2X7-Dependent Inflammasome Formation in Human Monocytes by Fluorescence Microscopy and Flow Cytometry.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
One of the most prominent effects of P2X7 activation in myeloid cells is the induction of the assembly of the NLRP3 inflammasome, a central process controlling the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines of the IL-1 family such as IL-1β and IL-18. The ability to visualize inflammasome formation greatly facilitates research into the role of P2X7 in inflammation. In this chapter, a method to monitor the formation of the NLPR3 inflammasome in monocytes and other myeloid cells could be demonstrated. Following priming by lipopolysaccharide (LPS), P2X7 was stimulated by ATP to mediate inflammasome assembly. This causes cytosolically disperse ASC, a central component of the inflammasome, to aggregate into microscopically visible specks due to its recruitment to the inflammasome. Methods to monitor this change in the spatial distribution of ASC in human peripheral blood monocytes by flow cytometry and fluorescence microscopy are presented.
