The Role of Inflammasomes in Mediating Urological Disease: A Short Literature Review.
Review in Journal of inflammation research, 2022. 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
Inflammasome dysfunction may be responsible for underlying inflammatory diseases, which include renal and urological pathologies. Five inflammasomes have been described, including nucleotide-binding domain leucine-rich repeat (NLR), NL pyrin domain containing receptor 1(NLPR1), NLRP3, NLR and caspase recruitment domain containing receptor 4 (NLRC4), and the AIM2-like receptor. The purpose of this study was to review literature sources regarding how innate immunity and inflammasomes contribute to urologic disease and infection. A literature search of PubMed/MEDLINE, EMBASE and Google Scholar articles. Articles were selected for review if their content included (1) inflammasomes and (2) urology in the adult population. The initiation of specific cytokine cascades, which include IL-1β and IL-18, appear responsible for a repertoire of urologic pathologies. Inflammation mediates a wide range of uropathies (urologic disorders and infections) which are found in the bladder, prostate, or kidney and inflammasomes appear to be particularly responsible for urological and renal pathologies. Understanding the role of inflammasomes in urologic disorders can help improve treatment and overall quality of life in patients with these disorders.
