STING-mediated neuroinflammation: a therapeutic target in neurodegenerative diseases.
Review in Frontiers in aging neuroscience, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
The stimulator of interferon genes (STING) plays a crucial role as an adaptor in innate immune defense, orchestrating key inflammatory processes through the modulation of type I interferon signaling and activation of cytokine networks. Recent studies have identified STING-induced neuroinflammatory responses as a major factor in the progression of neurological diseases, particularly in neurodegenerative disorders. This review methodically explores the structural basis of STING activation and its role in driving pathological inflammation. And the classic and non-classic pathways of STING as well as their roles in neurodegenerative diseases were discussed. Additionally, it critically assesses new pharmacological approaches that target the STING pathway, emphasizing anti-inflammatory treatments ranging from synthetic small-molecule inhibitors to bioactive compounds sourced from traditional Chinese medicines, which aim to mitigate neurotoxic inflammation. By combining mechanistic insights with therapeutic advancements, this paper presents an innovative transformation framework aimed at developing anti-inflammatory therapies targeting the STING pathway to treat neurodegenerative diseases. The core contribution of this framework lies in systematically bridging the innate immune regulation and neuroinflammation control mechanisms, providing a new strategy for disease intervention.
