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

Monocyte-like cell lines are valuable models for studying macrophage biology, yet a well-characterized canine macrophage model has been lacking. The canine histiocytic sarcoma-derived cell line 030D was assessed for its macrophage polarization potential by stimulation with IFN-γ + LPS (M1) or IL-4 (M2), or no additives (M0) and characterized for morphology, immunophenotype, marker gene expression, and phagocytic capacity. 030D M1 macrophages expressed higher levels of the surface markers CD32, CD40, CD80, CD83, CD86 and MHC II than 030D M2 macrophages. qPCR analysis showed higher expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-12p35/40, IL-23p19, COX2, CCL2, and CCR7), anti-inflammatory cytokines TGF-β and IL-10, as well as higher expression of LOX-1, LXN, and arginase-1 by 030D M1 macrophages compared to 030D M2 macrophages. Conversely, established M2 markers MS4A2 and CD206 were significantly higher in 030D M2 macrophages compared to 030D M1 macrophages. Functionally, 030D M1 macrophages displayed higher phagocytic activity than 030D M2 macrophages. Comparison of 030D-derived macrophages with primary canine monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs) demonstrate that both models, with the exception of TGF-β and IL-10, resemble each other in the studied parameters. Thus, the 030D cell line provides a highly accessible and validated tool for studying canine macrophage biology and immune responses.
