Inflammasomes in Alzheimer's Progression: Nrf2 as a Preventive Target.
Review in Antioxidants (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. 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
Current knowledge about Alzheimer's disease highlights the accumulation of β-amyloid plaques (Aβ1-42) and neurofibrillary tangles composed of hyperphosphorylated Tau, which lead to the loss of neuronal connections. Microglial activation and the release of inflammatory mediators play a significant role in the progression of Alzheimer's pathology. Recent advances have identified the involvement of inflammasomes, particularly NOD-like receptor NLR family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3), whose activation promotes the release of proinflammatory cytokines and triggers pyroptosis, exacerbating neuroinflammation. Aggregates of Aβ1-42 and hyperphosphorylated Tau have been shown to activate these inflammasomes, while the apoptosis-associated speck-like protein (ASC) components form aggregates that further accelerate Aβ aggregation. Defects in the autophagic clearance of inflammasomes have also been implicated in Alzheimer's disease, contributing to sustained inflammation. This review explores strategies to counteract inflammation in Alzheimer's, emphasizing the degradation of ASC specks and the inhibition of NLRP3 inflammasome activation. Notably, the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) transcription factor emerges as a promising therapeutic target due to its dual role in mitigating oxidative stress and directly inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome formation. By reducing inflammasome-driven inflammation, Nrf2 offers significant potential for addressing the neuroinflammatory aspects of Alzheimer's disease.
