Single-cell RNA-seq reveals a resolving immune phenotype in the oral mucosa.
Article in iScience, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The oral mucosa is the interface between the host immune response and the oral microbiota. In periodontal disease, the microbial plaque elicits a tissue-destructive immune response. Removal of the microbial stimulus initiates active resolution of inflammatory. Here, we use single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) to characterize the immune response within the oral mucosa across three distinct conditions of periodontal health, disease, and resolution in mice. We report gene expression shifts across the three conditions are driven by macrophage and neutrophils and identify a unique gene signature that characterizes resolution of disease. Macrophage subgroups are identified that demonstrate differential expansion across conditions, including a subgroup that expands during resolution with an immunoregulatory gene signature and enriched for surface marker Cd74. We validate expansion of this subgroup during resolution via flow cytometry. This work presents a robust single-cell dataset of immunological changes in the oral mucosa and identifies a resolution-associated macrophage phenotype in mucosal immunity.
