Global scientific trends update on macrophage polarization in rheumatoid arthritis: A bibliometric and visualized analysis from 2000 to 2022.
Review in Heliyon, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 goal of this work was to use bibliometric analysis to help guide future research on macrophage polarization in RA. We looked for studies on macrophage polarization in RA published between January 1, 2000, and December 31, 2022, in the WoSCC database. Research trends and hotspots were shown and assessed using VOSviewer and CiteSpace. A total of 181 articles were gathered. Belgium was among the early adopters of the field. Chinese institutes have produced the most research. Researchers such as Angel Luis Corb, Amaya Puig-Kröger, and Lizbeth Estrada-Capetillo have made major contributions to the field.
