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

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia is a common complication of preterm birth, driven in part by the inflammatory effects of supplemental oxygen on the immature lung. Although oxygen therapy is essential, it contributes to disrupted lung development but not all infants are equally susceptible. Using genetically diverse mouse models, we found that hyperoxia-sensitive mice exhibit a distinct innate immune response compared to resilient strains. Notably, the hyperoxia-sensitive C57BL/6J strain showed selective upregulation of TREM2 on lung macrophages and monocytes. Deletion of TREM2 in myeloid cells led to reduced inflammation, preserved alveolar structure and sustained cell proliferation in the developing lung following oxygen exposure. Mechanistically, TREM2 loss limited p53 activation, favoring cell-cycle arrest over apoptosis. These results identify TREM2 as a key driver of immune-mediated lung injury in neonatal hyperoxia and suggest it may be a promising therapeutic target for preventing or treating bronchopulmonary dysplasia in vulnerable preterm infants.
