Intravital imaging of pulmonary lymphatics in inflammation and metastatic cancer.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Intravital microscopy has enabled the study of immune dynamics in the pulmonary microvasculature, but many key events remain unseen because they occur in deeper lung regions. We therefore developed a technique for stabilized intravital imaging of bronchovascular cuffs and collecting lymphatics surrounding pulmonary veins in mice. Intravital imaging of pulmonary lymphatics revealed ventilation-dependence of steady-state lung lymph flow and ventilation-independent lymph flow during inflammation. We imaged the rapid exodus of migratory dendritic cells through lung lymphatics following inflammation and measured effects of pharmacologic and genetic interventions targeting chemokine signaling. Intravital imaging also captured lymphatic immune surveillance of lung-metastatic cancers and lymphatic metastasis of cancer cells. To our knowledge, this is the first imaging of lymph flow and leukocyte migration through intact pulmonary lymphatics. This approach will enable studies of protective and maladaptive processes unfolding within the lungs and in other previously inaccessible locations.
