Depletion of perivascular macrophages delays ALS disease progression by ameliorating blood-spinal cord barrier impairment in SOD1
Article in Frontiers in cellular neuroscience, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal motor neuron disease in which non-cell-autonomous processes have been proposed as its cause. Non-neuronal cells that constitute the environment around motor neurons are known to mediate the pathogenesis of ALS. Perivascular macrophages (PVM) are immune cells that reside between the blood vessels of the central nervous system and the brain parenchyma; PVM are components of the neurovascular unit and regulate the integrity of the blood-spinal cord barrier (BSCB). However, it is not known whether regulation of BSCB function by PVM is involved in the pathogenesis of ALS. Here, we used SOD1
