Healing of tendon-related diseases: insights from macrophage regulation.
Review in Military Medical Research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Tendon-related diseases (TRDs) are increasingly common in the current aging society and impose a significant burden on patients. Despite therapeutic advances, the pathophysiology of TRDs remains poorly understood, hindering effective clinical management. The macrophages are highly plastic immune cells involved in the maintenance of in vivo homeostasis and the injury-healing process. Their dual role in TRDs has been widely investigated, either promoting tenogenic and chondrogenic differentiation or amplifying inflammatory response, underscoring their therapeutic potential for TRDs treatment. Therefore, the review aims to summarize the roles of macrophages in the healing of TRDs, characterized by limited regenerative capacity, and examine strategies for the modulation of macrophage phenotypes to accelerate the regeneration process. Finally, we review applications involving macrophage modulation within the context of tissue engineering of TRDs, providing novel insights for the design of biomaterials-based targeted delivery systems.
