Border-Associated Macrophages: From Embryogenesis to Immune Regulation.
Review in CNS neuroscience & therapeutics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Border-associated macrophages (BAMs) play a pivotal role in maintaining brain homeostasis and responding to pathological conditions. Understanding their origins, characteristics, and roles in both healthy and diseased brains is crucial for advancing our knowledge of neuroinflammatory and neurodegenerative diseases. This review addresses the ontogeny, replenishment, microenvironmental regulation, and transcriptomic heterogeneity of BAMs, highlighting recent advancements in lineage tracing and fate-mapping studies. Furthermore, we examine the roles of BAMs in maintaining brain homeostasis, immune surveillance, and responses to injury and neurodegenerative diseases. Further research is crucial to clarify the dynamic interplay between BAMs and the brain's microenvironment in health and disease. This effort will not only resolve existing controversies but also reveal new therapeutic targets for neuroinflammatory and neurodegenerative disorders, pushing the boundaries of neuroscience.
