Article in Journal of oral microbiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Methods: Standard-grade (ST) and ultrapure-grade (UP) purified PgLPS were tested for CASP4 activation using recombinant CASP4 in fluorogenic and IL-18 assays. PgLPS-CASP4 interactions were examined by pull-down. In HSC-2 cells, IL-18 maturation, gasdermin D cleavage, pyroptosis, and dependence on CASP4 or TLR4 were assessed after cytosolic LPS delivery. Guanylate-binding protein-1 (GBP1) involvement was evaluated by siRNA knockdown. Effects of outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) were also tested. Results: ST-PgLPS directly activated recombinant CASP4, while UP-PgLPS did not. Intracellular delivery of ST-PgLPS induced weak pyroptosis, while UP-PgLPS had no effect. Responses were abrogated by CASP4 inhibition but not by TLR4 inhibition. IFN- Conclusion: CASP4 activation depends on PgLPS purity and host cell priming. GBP1 contributes to PgLPS sensing, and OMVs serve as vehicles for PgLPS delivery to the cytosol.
