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

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive and debilitating lung disease characterized by excessive extracellular matrix deposition and tissue scarring. The median survival of patients with IPF is only 4.5 years following diagnosis, and effective treatment options are scarce. Recent studies found aberrant translation of specific mRNAs in various fibrosing diseases, highlighting the role of key translational regulators, including RNA binding proteins (RBPs), microRNAs, long noncoding RNAs, and transcript modifications. Notably, when inhibited, 10 profibrotic RBPs cause a significant attenuation of fibrosis, illuminating potential therapeutic targets. In this review, we describe translational regulation in fibrosis and highlight a model where a conserved evolutionary mechanism may explain this regulation.
