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

Acute neuroinflammation rapidly activates brain immune responses, but its lasting effects on microglia are unclear. Using systemic LPS administration and LCMV-Armstrong infection, we found that blood-brain barrier disruption and cytokine shifts resolved within 30 days, yet microglial recovery was incomplete-marked by persistent numerical loss and an IFN-γ-low phenotype in the LPS model and reduced relative abundance in the LCMV model. Single-cell RNA sequencing revealed sustained transcriptional alterations, including disease-associated microglia (DAM) features and a distinct recovery-biased population. These acute signatures overlapped with profiles from Alzheimer's model mice and were enriched in human microglia from multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, and other neuroinflammatory conditions. Although our observation period was shorter than the chronic course of these diseases, the persistence of disease-like microglial states suggests that transient inflammation can prime the brain for long-term vulnerability. Targeting this primed state may offer new strategies to prevent or mitigate neurodegenerative pathology.
