Assessment of NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation and NLRP3-NEK7 Complex Assembly.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2023. 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
The NLRP3 inflammasome is a critical component of innate immunity that activates caspase-1 to induce inflammation in response to a wide spectrum of endogenous and exogenous stimuli. NLRP3 inflammasome activation has been shown by assays for the cleavage of caspase-1 and gasdermin D, the maturation of IL-1β and IL-18, and ASC speck formation in innate immune cells such as macrophages and monocytes. Recently, NEK7 has been revealed as an essential regulator for NLRP3 inflammasome activation by forming high-molecular-weight complexes with NLRP3. Blue native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (BN-PAGE) has been used to study multi-protein complexes in many experimental systems. Here, we provide a detailed protocol to detect NLRP3 inflammasome activation and NLRP3-NEK7 complex assembly in mouse macrophages by Western blot and BN-PAGE.
