Alveolar macrophages polarization switch via α

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
purposeThe present study aimed to explore the anti-inflammatory mechanism of dexmedetomidine (Dex), an α
methodsRIR was induced in C57BL/6J mice by bilateral renal pedicles occlusion for 60 min followed by 24 h of reperfusion. Mice were pretreated with Dex alone or in combination with atipamezole (Atip), an α
resultsThe findings demonstrated that, in comparison to RIR animals, dexmedetomidine mitigated lung injury and remarkably promoted macrophage polarization towards an anti-inflammatory M2 phenotype in the pulmonary tissue. Concurrently, a reduction in inflammatory cell infiltration and levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines was observed. In vitro studies verified that dexmedetomidine directed MH-S towards the M2 phenotype after stimulation with RIR serum. However, these effects were mostly reversed following administration of atipamezole.
conclusionDexmedetomidine alleviates renal ischemia-reperfusion-induced ALI by activating α
