NLRP3+ macrophages aggravate inflammatory cystitis in diabetes.
Article in Frontiers in immunology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Inflammatory macrophages play a pivotal role in the progression of inflammatory cystitis. Formation of NOD-, LRR- and PYD domains-containing protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome triggers the activation of caspase-1/IL-1β signaling cascades to mediate inflammatory response. However, it is not known whether NLRP3 activation in macrophages during cystitis may differ in normal or diabetic setting as well as the importance of it. In this study, we found that NLRP3 levels significantly increased in bladder macrophages in diabetic mice that underwent cystitis. Moreover, bladder macrophages from diabetic mice appeared to have increased their potential of growth, migration and phagocytosis. Furthermore, specific depletion of NLRP3 in macrophages alleviated the severity of cystitis in diabetic mice, but not in non-diabetic mice. Together, our data suggest that NLRP3 depletion in macrophages may be a promising strategy for treating diabetic cystitis.
