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

Aim: To identify osteoclastogenic macrophage subsets and their regulatory mechanisms in periodontitis. Methods: We integrated single-cell RNA sequencing datasets from human and murine periodontitis to construct a comprehensive macrophage and monocyte atlas. Employing functional enrichment, cell-cell communication, pseudotime, transcription factor, and machine learning analyses, we characterized and selected the specific macrophage subset involved in cell interactions. In vitro and in vivo experiments, including enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, TRAP staining, micro-CT, qPCR, flow cytometry, and immunofluorescence staining, were performed to dissect the osteoclastogenic potential of specific macrophage subsets and to identify the key pathways. Results: We discovered that the IL7R Conclusion: Our study identifies IL7R
