1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Macrophages play a crucial role in regulating inflammation and innate immune responses, and their polarization into distinct phenotypes, such as M1 and M2, is involved in various diseases. However, the specific role of CD163, a scavenger receptor expressed by macrophages, in the transformation of M2 to M1 macrophages remains unclear. Here, dexamethasone-induced M2 macrophages were treated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to induce the transformation of M2 to M1 macrophages. We found that treatment with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced the transformation of M2-like macrophages to an M1-like phenotype, as evidenced by increased mRNA levels of
