Humans pIKK-up NLRP3 to skip NEK7.
Article in Trends in immunology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
NLRP3 inflammasome regulation is essential for controlling cell death and inflammation. Mechanistic studies in murine cells suggest a two-step model of priming and activation with an indispensable role for NEK7. However, in a recent article in Immunity, Schmacke et al. report that, in humans, transcription-independent NLRP3 activation occurs by circumventing NEK7 via IKKβ.
