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

Atherosclerosis is a complex pathological process, which causes diseases that threaten the health of an increasing number of people. Studies have found that the original view of lipid accumulation is not comprehensive because the use of lipid-lowering drugs alone cannot effectively treat atherosclerosis. As the study of the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis develops in-depth, the impact of immune-inflammatory response on atherosclerosis has garnered a great deal of attention. Some new advances have been made in the role of regulatory T cells (Tregs) and macrophages with unique immunomodulatory functions in atherosclerosis. Herein, the role of Tregs, macrophages, the mechanisms of Tregs-regulated macrophages, and the effects of potential factors on Tregs and macrophages in atherosclerosis are overviewed. Targeting Tregs and macrophages may provide new research strategies for the treatment of atherosclerosis in the clinic.
