The regulatory role of the BDNF/TrkB pathway in organ and tissue fibrosis.
Review in Histology and histopathology, 2021. 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
Fibrosis across diverse organ systems is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality by inducing progressive architectural remodeling and organ dysfunction. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and its receptor tyrosine kinase receptor B (TrkB) play crucial roles in regulating neural survival, development, function and plasticity in the central and the peripheral nervous system. Previous studies demonstrated that the BDNF/TrkB pathway is widely distributed in different cell types such as neuron, epithelial cell, hepatocyte, and cardiomyocyte. Recently, there is increasing recognition that BDNF and TrkB are also expressed in fibroblasts in different organs. Moreover, growing evidence was obtained regarding the functional roles of BDNF/TrkB signaling in organ and tissue fibrosis. Thus, this review summarizes the basic molecular characteristics of the BDNF/TrkB cascade and the findings of the crucial roles and therapeutic value in organ and tissue fibrosis including pulmonary fibrosis, hepatic fibrosis, renal fibrosis, cardiac fibrosis, bladder fibrosis and skin fibrosis. Small molecule BDNF mimetic and BDNF-related non-coding RNAs are also discussed for developing new therapeutic approaches for fibrotic disorders.
