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

Alcoholic hepatitis (AH) is associated with cytokeratin 8 and 18 (CK8/18) accumulation as cytoplasmic inclusion bodies, termed Mallory bodies (MBs). Studies with MB mouse models and cultured hepatocytes suggested that CK8/18 hyperphosphorylation might be involved in MB formation. However, no data exist on phosphorylation of CK8/18 in human AH. In this study, antibodies that selectively recognize phosphorylated epitopes of CK8 or CK18 were used to analyze CK8/18 phosphorylation states in normal human and murine livers, human AH biopsies, and livers of 3,5-diethoxycarbonyl-1, 4-dihydrocollidine (DDC)-intoxicated mice, the last serving as model for MB induction. Hepatocyte cytokeratins become hyperphosphorylated at multiple sites in AH and in DDC-intoxicated mice. Hyperphosphorylation of CK8/18 occurred rapidly, after 1 day of DDC intoxication and preceded architectural changes of the cytoskeleton. In long-term DDC-intoxicated mice as well as in human AH, MBs preferentially contain hyperphosphorylated CK8/18 as compared with the cytoplasmic cytokeratin intermediate filament network suggesting that CK8/18 hyperphosphorylation may play a contributing role in MB pathogenesis. Furthermore, the site-specific phosphorylation of cytokeratin in different stages of MB induction provides indirect evidence for the involvement of a variety of protein kinases known to be activated in stress responses, mitosis, and apoptosis.
