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

BACKGROUND AND

aimsAdvanced liver disease leads to liver fibrosis that is characterised by the activation of non-parenchymal stellate cells, accumulation of extracellular matrix proteins, and the loss of hepatic vitamin A stores. To date, the molecular mechanisms and enzymes mediating the loss of hepatic vitamin A stores are incompletely understood. APPROACH AND

resultsUsing a fibrosis mouse model induced by the hepatotoxin carbon tetrachloride (CCl

conclusionTogether, these results indicate that the loss of hepatic retinyl ester stores upon liver injury and stellate cell activation is rather a consequence of reduced retinol esterification than neutral or acidic hydrolysis.
