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

Background: Methods: This study was carried out in the Department of Parasitology, Faculty of Medical Sciences, Tarbiat Modares University, in 2018. The effect of imiquimod was investigated on non-infected and infected macrophages with Results: The expression of TLR2 decreased in non-infected macrophages were affected by the imiquimod. The expression level of TLR7 in healthy macrophages, decreased and the difference with control group was significant. Imiquimod increases the expression of inflammatory cytokines and IL12 in mouse macrophages and also decrease the expression of IL10. Conclusion: This suggests that imiquimod may improve the therapeutic effects in infected mice with
