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

Liver disease is a leading cause of mortality worldwide. Emerging evidence highlights the significant role of epigenetic regulation in sustaining liver homeostasis, providing new therapeutic strategies for liver disease. Hepatocyte-specific deletion of the epigenetic regulator KANSL3, a key component of the NSL complex, results in early-onset liver disease marked by biliary hyperplasia and hepatic fibrosis. KANSL3 is essential for regulating hepatocyte transcriptional networks important for hepatic steroid and lipid metabolism through histone acetylation. Moreover, single-cell RNA sequencing demonstrated that the loss of KANSL3 disrupts the differentiation of hepatocytes in vivo. The transcriptional programs necessary for hepatocyte differentiation of ductal and fetal liver organoids were severely compromised in the absence of KANSL3. These findings collectively demonstrate a crucial role of the epigenetic regulator KANSL3 in hepatocyte differentiation in liver development and disease.
