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

Hepatic drug metabolizing enzymes (DMEs) markedly affect drug pharmacokinetics. Because liver diseases may alter enzymatic function and in turn drug handling and clinical efficacy, we investigated DMEs expression in dependence on liver pathology and liver failure state. In 5 liver pathologies (hepatitis C, alcoholic liver disease, autoimmune hepatitis, primary biliary cholangitis and primary sclerosing cholangitis) and for the first time stratified according to the Child-Pugh score, 10 CYPs (CYP1A1, CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP2E1, CYP3A4 and CYP3A5) and 4 UGTs (UGT1A1, UGT1A3, UGT2B7 and UGT2B) enzymes were quantified for protein abundance (LC-MS/MS) and gene expression (qRT-PCR). CYP2E1 was the most vulnerable enzyme, and its protein levels were significantly reduced just in Child-Pugh class A livers. The protein abundance of CYP1A1, CYP2B6, CYP2C19, CYP2D6 as well as UGT1A1, UGT1A3 and UGT2B15 was relatively stable in the course of progression of liver function deterioration. Alcoholic liver disease and primary biliary cholangitis were involved in the most prominent changes in the protein abundances, with downregulation of 6 (CYP1A2, CYP2C8, CYP2D6, CYP2E1, CYP3A4, UGT2B7) and 5 (CYP1A1, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2E1, CYP3A4) significantly downregulated enzymes, respectively. The results of the study demonstrate that DMEs protein abundance is affected both by the type of liver pathology as well as functional state of the organ.
