Microglia in the crosstalk between peripheral and central nervous systems in Parkinson's disease.
Review in Translational neurodegeneration, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Parkinson's disease (PD) is increasingly recognized as a multisystem disorder involving pathological α-synuclein (α-syn) accumulation and widespread neuroimmune dysregulation. Microglia, the resident immune cells in the central nervous system (CNS), are pivotal mediators of the bidirectional communication between the CNS and peripheral systems. In addition to sensing neuronal injury and α-syn pathology, microglia dynamically respond to peripheral immune signals, including circulating cytokines, immune cell infiltration, and microbial metabolites, through pattern recognition receptors such as Toll-like and NOD-like receptors. Furthermore, microglia regulate blood-brain barrier integrity, modulate peripheral immune cell recruitment, interact with meningeal lymphatic vessels, and contribute to the propagation of α-syn within the CNS and along the gut-brain axis. However, a comprehensive framework encompassing their diverse roles in peripheral-central immune crosstalk remains underdeveloped. This review synthesizes recent advances elucidating how microglia link the CNS to peripheral immune and metabolic signals in PD. We further highlight microglial contributions to α-syn propagation along the gut-brain axis and discuss how their functional states influence disease progression. A deeper understanding of microglial involvement in this complex neuroimmune interface may inform the development of effective and system-level therapeutic strategies for PD.
