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

CD154 (CD40L) is of central importance in effector responses mediated by classically activated macrophages. However, there is limited information on the impact of CD154 on macrophage responses in type 2 contexts, characterised by IL-4-induced polarisation and proliferation. CD154 restricts the polarisation and proliferation of peritoneal cavity macrophages in response to exogenous IL-4. Here we address the impact of CD154 on peritoneal macrophages during infection of mice with the intestinal helminth Heligmosomoides polygyrus. This strictly enteric nematode causes recruitment of Th2 cells and macrophages to the peritoneal cavity alongside type 2 polarisation and proliferation of recruited and resident macrophages. Nine days post-infection, there was an increase in the expression of cell-surface CD154 in CD4
