Inflammatory Memory in Epidermal Stem Cells - A New Strategy for Recurrent Inflammatory Skin Diseases.
Review in Journal of inflammation research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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 ability of the skin to "remember" has been a potential mechanism for studying recurrent skin diseases. While it has been thought that the ability to retain past encounters is the prerogative of immune cells, it has recently been discovered that skin tissue stem cells can also take on this task. Epithelial stem cells undergoing inflammation retain their "memory" through epigenetic reprogramming and exhibit rapid epithelialization and epidermal proliferation upon secondary stimulation. This is a non-specific memory modality independent of conventional immune memory, in which histone modifications (acetylation and methylation) and specific transcription factors (AP-1 and STAT3) are involved in the establishment of inflammatory memories, and AIM2/Caspase-1/IL-1β mainly performs the rapid effects of memory. This finding is intriguing for addressing recurrent inflammatory skin diseases, which may explain the fixed-site recurrence of inflammatory skin diseases and develop new therapeutic strategies in the future. However, more research is still needed to decipher the mysteries of memory.
