Liver development during
Article in iScience, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Thyroid hormone (T3) regulates vertebrate organ development, growth, and metabolism through the T3 receptor (TR). Due to maternal influence in mammals, it has been difficult to study if and how T3 regulates liver development. Liver remodeling during anuran metamorphosis resembles liver maturation in mammals and is controlled by T3. We generated Xenopus tropicalis animals with both TRα and TRβ genes knocked out and found that TR double knockout liver had developmental defects such as reduced cell proliferation and failure to undergo hepatocyte hypertrophy or activate urea cycle gene expression. RNA-seq analysis showed that T3 activated canonical Wnt pathway in the liver. Particularly, Wnt11 was activated in both fibroblasts and hepatic cells, and in turn, likely promoted the proliferation and maturation of hepatocytes. Our study offers new insights into not only how T3 regulates liver development but also on potential means to improve liver regeneration.
