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

Triggering receptors expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2), an immune receptor expressed on myeloid cells, has garnered considerable attention in recent years due to its role in unique signaling pathways and diverse biological functions, including phagocytosis, lipid metabolism, cell survival, and inflammatory responses. Although TREM2 is expressed in various cell types, such as macrophages, dendritic cells (DCs), osteoclasts, and others, where it exhibits context-dependent functional characteristics, it is mainly expressed in macrophages. Notably, TREM2 is implicated in the development and progression of multiple diseases, playing dual and often opposing roles in noncancerous diseases and cancers. This review aims to highlight the pivotal role of TREM2 in macrophages and immune-related diseases, elucidate its underlying mechanisms of action, explore its potential as a clinical diagnostic and prognostic marker, and propose therapeutic strategies targeting TREM2 based on current clinical trial data, providing comprehensive guidance and references for clinical practice.
