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

Intracellular lipopolysaccharide activates caspase-4/5 triggering pyroptotic cell death. We present a protocol for a high-throughput loss-of-function screening approach to identify interferon-gamma-stimulated genes regulating this pathway. We detail procedures for cell reverse-transfection with a custom-made small interfering RNA (siRNA) library in 384-well plates and priming with interferon-gamma. We then describe steps for transfection with lipopolysaccharide to induce pyroptosis and live-cell fluorescence microscopy using the IncuCyte S3 system to quantify cell death in real time without fixation. This approach enables reliable, high-throughput screening of cell death.
