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

Mitophagy clears damaged mitochondria and maintains normal macrophage function. Clarifying the associations between idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), macrophages, and mitophagy is crucial for early diagnosis and clinical management. Core macrophage subsets were identified as M2 macrophages via single-cell RNA sequencing and immune infiltration analysis. Differentially expressed genes related to this subset were obtained. Integrated differential expression analysis, weighted gene co-expression network analysis, machine learning, and expression verification were applied to screen biomarkers.
