Acupuncture's Immunomodulatory Effects on Macrophages in Allergic Disorders: A Systematic Review.
Review in Journal of asthma and allergy, 2025. 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
The incidence of allergic diseases has been increasing annually, severely affecting the quality of life of patients. With the growing recognition of traditional medicine, acupuncture, an ancient Chinese therapeutic method, has gradually gained attention for its potential in immune modulation. Studies have shown that macrophages play a crucial role in the development of allergic diseases, and acupuncture may influence allergic reactions by modulating the function of macrophages. This article aims to systematically evaluate the regulatory effects of acupuncture on macrophages in allergic diseases and the corresponding mechanisms. It analyzes existing research findings and explores the clinical application prospects of acupuncture in this context. By understanding how acupuncture affects the activation, secretion, and role of macrophages in immune responses, we hope to provide new insights and directions for the treatment of allergic diseases.
