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

Novel technologies such as single-cell RNA and single-nucleus RNA sequencing have shed new light on the complexity of different microglia populations in physiological and pathological states. The transcriptomic profiling of these populations has led to the subclassification of specific disease-associated microglia and microglia clusters in neurodegenerative diseases. A common profile includes the downregulation of homeostasis and the upregulation of inflammatory markers. Furthermore, there is concordance in few clusters between murine and human samples. Apolipoprotein E, which has long been considered a high-risk factor for late-onset Alzheimer's disease, is strongly regulated in both these murine and human clusters. Transforming growth factor-β plays an essential role during the development and maturation of microglia. In a pathological state, it attenuates their activation and is involved in numerous cell regulatory processes. Transforming growth factor-β also has an influence on the deposition of amyloid-beta, as it is involved in the regulation of key proteins and molecules. Taken together, this review highlights the complex interaction of apolipoprotein E, the triggering receptor on myeloid cells 2, and transforming growth factor-β as part of a regulatory axis in microglia at the onset and over the course of Alzheimer's disease.
