Spotlight on macrophage pyroptosis: A bibliometric and visual analysis from 2001 to 2023.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Macrophage pyroptosis plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of various diseases, especially acute lung injury, atherosclerosis, and sepsis. Despite its importance, analysis of the existing literature has been limited. Therefore, we conducted a bibliometric analysis to provide a comprehensive overview of research on macrophage pyroptosis and identify the current research foci and trends in this field. We collected articles related to macrophage pyroptosis published between 2001 and 2022 from the Web of Science Core Collection and PubMed. Citespace, VOSviewer, bibliometrix R package, and Microsoft Excel 2019 were used to analyze co-occurrence relationships and the contribution of countries/regions, institutions, journals, authors, references, and keywords. In total, 1321 papers were included. China and the United States of America published the most articles in this field. TD Kanneganti had the most publications; BT Cookson was the most cited. Although China contributed the most publications, it had a relatively low ratio of multiple-country collaborations (0.132). Among journals,
