IFN-γ and YAP lead epithelial cells astray after severe respiratory infection.
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 5 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
Ineffective recovery from pneumonia can lead to interstitial lung disease characterized by aberrant epithelial cells in fibrotic regions. In this issue of the JCI, Lin et al. define molecular pathways leading to the development and persistence of keratin 5+ (Krt5+) epithelial cells in the alveolar parenchyma when mice struggle to recover from influenza infection. The receptor for IFN-γ on lung epithelium was essential for the formation of aberrant Krt5+ cells and fibrotic lung disease. The transcription factor Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP) was necessary for persistence of these Krt5+ cells, and IFN-γ activated YAP in lung epithelial cells via JAK, focal adhesion kinase (FAK), and Src kinases. These findings establish a targetable pathway underlying some of the pulmonary postacute sequelae of pneumonia.
