Role and mechanisms of mast cells in brain disorders.
Review in Frontiers in immunology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
Mast cells serve as crucial effector cells within the innate immune system and are predominantly localized in the skin, airways, gastrointestinal tract, urinary and reproductive tracts, as well as in the brain. Under physiological conditions, brain-resident mast cells secrete a diverse array of neuro-regulatory mediators to actively participate in neuroprotection. Meanwhile, as the primary source of molecules causing brain inflammation, mast cells also function as the "first responders" in brain injury. They interact with neuroglial cells and neurons to facilitate the release of numerous inflammatory mediators, proteases, and reactive oxygen species. This process initiates and amplifies immune-inflammatory responses in the brain, thereby contributing to the regulation of neuroinflammation and blood-brain barrier permeability. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the potential mechanisms through which mast cells in the brain may modulate neuroprotection and their pathological implications in various neurological disorders. It is our contention that the inhibition of mast cell activation in brain disorders could represent a novel avenue for therapeutic breakthroughs.
