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

Background: Bone marrow inflammaging is a low-grade chronic inflammation that induces bone marrow aging. Multiple age-related and inflammatory diseases involve bone marrow inflammaging. Whether common pathological pathways exist in bone marrow inflammaging remains unclear. Methods: We collected bone marrow from telomerase-deficient mice (telomerase RNA component, TERC Results: We identified the monocyte/macrophage lineage was activated via the App-Cd74 axis in multiple aging and inflammatory mouse models. Increased expression of CD38 and Ly6a, and decreased expression of Col1a and Lif in macrophages serve as shared changes in different mouse models. The activated macrophages, interacting with other cells, control the expansion of B cells via the CD52-Siglec-G axis. The Ccl6-Ccr2 and Ccl9-Ccr1 ligand-receptor pairs, along with Fn1 and C3-related pathways in macrophages, were associated with immune cell activation and the recruitment of lymphocytes. Interactions with mesenchymal cells were enriched for integrins (Itga4), Fn1, and adhesion molecules (Vcam1). Conclusion: Our study demonstrates that monocyte/macrophage lineage stimulation is a key event in bone marrow inflammaging. We identified common differentially expressed genes and activated pathways in this lineage, suggesting potential targets for future interventions. The translational potential of this article: Our study revealed shared genes and ligand-receptor pairs in the activated monocyte/macrophage lineage within inflammaging bone marrow. These findings offer potential therapeutic targets for cell-specific anti-inflammatory treatments.
