Nerve- and airway-associated interstitial macrophages mitigate SARS-CoV-2 pathogenesis via type I interferon signaling.
Article in Immunity, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Despite vaccines, rapidly mutating viruses such as severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) continue to threaten human health due to an impaired immunoregulatory pathway and a hyperactive immune response. Our understanding of the local immune mechanisms used by tissue-resident macrophages to safeguard the host from excessive inflammation during SARS-CoV-2 infection remains limited. Here, we found that nerve- and airway-associated interstitial macrophages (NAMs) are required to control mouse-adapted SARS-CoV-2 (MA-10) infection. Control mice restricted lung viral distribution and survived infection, whereas NAM depletion enhanced viral spread and inflammation and led to 100% mortality. Mechanistically, type I interferon receptor (IFNAR) signaling by NAMs was critical for limiting inflammation and viral spread, and IFNAR deficiency in CD169
