Fibrosis uncovered: ADAMTS12 cuts to the core of extracellular matrix drama.
Article in The Journal of clinical investigation, 2024. 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
Fibrosis is a common manifestation of most progressive and degenerative diseases, with myofibroblast activation and matrix accumulation playing a key role. In this issue of the JCI, Hoeft et al. identify the important role of ADAMTS12 in fibroblast activation. ADAMTS12, a secreted protein, is involved in extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling, cell signaling, and inflammation. ADAMTS12 facilitates proteolysis by cleaving various substrates such as ECM components, which are vital for cellular signaling and remodeling. Additionally, it modulates cell-matrix interactions, influencing cell adhesion and migration, and plays an important role in the inflammatory processes. Understanding the role of ADAMTS12 offers potential therapeutic insights for targeting fibrosis in progressive diseases.
