1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Microglia, the primary immune cell in the brain, have multiple activation phenotypes involved in broad functions within the brain, playing roles in neurotoxicity/neuroprotection, release of inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines, and in cell survival, proliferation, and phagocytosis. TREM2 and TYROBP form a transmembrane complex in microglia that modulates intracellular signaling networks, and these proteins are essential regulators of the transition from homeostatic to activated microglia. Recent findings support a TREM2-independent molecular signature that is involved in the early transition of homeostatic to disease-associated microglia (DAM), with the next sequential step of DAM activation from stage 1 to stage 2 being TREM2-dependent. However, the underlying mechanisms determining how TREM2 or TYROBP regulate these downstream phenotypes are largely unknown. We isolated primary microglia from C57BL/6 wild-type (WT) controls, Graphical abstract: Supplementary Information: The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1186/s44477-025-00012-x.
