Monocytes/Macrophages in Helminth Infections: Key Players in Host Defence, Inflammation, and Tissue Repair.
Review in Results and problems in cell differentiation, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Monocytes/macrophages are pivotal in host defense, inflammation, and tissue repair. They are actively engaged during helminth infections, playing critical roles in trapping pathogens, eliminating them, repairing tissue damage, and mitigating type 2 inflammation. These cells are indispensable in preserving physiological equilibrium and overseeing pathogen resistance as well as metabolic processes. Furthermore, these immune cells are influenced by cellular metabolism, which adjusts in response to host-derived factors and environmental cues. They secrete effector molecules crucial for anti-helminthic immunity and healing tissues damaged by parasites. Helminth parasites manipulate the immune regulatory capabilities of monocytes/macrophages by secreting anti-inflammatory mediators to dodge host defenses. Infections, especially with helminths, induce metabolic adaptations involving monocytes/macrophages that can lead to enhanced insulin sensitivity. This review provides a synthesis of the activation and diversity of monocytes/macrophages, their involvement in inflammation, and the latest insights into the strategies of monocyte/macrophage-mediated host defense against helminth infections. It also sheds light on recent discoveries concerning the immune regulatory interactions between monocytes/macrophages and helminth parasites.
