Phagocytosis is crucial for brain repair.

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
Phagocytic engulfment and digestion of extracellular material are essential for debris removal, metabolic recycling, tissue remodeling, and inflammation control after brain injury. However, the coordination of phagocytosis across cell types and disease contexts remains incompletely understood. Ju et al. demonstrate that remote ischemic conditioning enhances CD36-dependent phagocytic activity in recruited monocytes/macrophages, which contributes to improved stroke recovery. Building on these important findings, we suggest that effective brain repair requires coordinated phagocytosis across multiple cell types, extending beyond apoptotic neurons to diverse injury-associated substrates. We further argue that intracellular signaling, aging, sex, and circadian biology shape phagocytic efficiency and therapeutic potential.
