Monitoring Inflammasome Activity Through ASC Speck Formation in THP-1 ASC-GFP Cells.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Inflammasome activation and signaling are hallmarks of immune activation and cellular response. Understanding the complex mechanisms involved in the formation of the NLRP3 inflammasome is vital to accurately evaluating potentially anti-inflammatory molecules. The oligomerization of ASC is a well-documented indicator of inflammasome activation, and ASC-GFP allows the visualization of these "specks." Here, we detail a higher throughput methodology for monitoring inflammasome activation and screening potential anti-inflammatory compounds utilizing an Incucyte® live cell imager. It provides a platform to observe cell activation and cell death in real-time. Cells can be visualized from initial plating through to inflammasome-induced cell death, granting insights into inflammasome activation kinetics and previously unknown toxicities.
