Alterations of bone marrow sinusoidal endothelium in rat and patients with liver cirrhosis.

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
Whether bone marrow changes occur and potentially contribute to the hematological abnormalities in liver cirrhosis remain unclear. In this study, we established a rat model of liver cirrhosis induced by carbon tetrachloride. Electron microscopy examination showed focal lesions in bone marrow sinusoidal endothelium and hematopoietic cells in animals with cirrhosis. With the persistence of liver cirrhosis, injuries of bone marrow sinusoidal endothelium progressed from mild mitochondrial changes to nuclear pycnosis and cell disruption, and the trilineage hematopoietic cells showed apoptosis and necrosis. Immunohistochemistry revealed increased expression of E-selectin, P-selectin and vWF in bone marrow sinusoidal endothelium of the cirrhotic rats, which was consistent with the data from semiquantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction analysis. Autopsy specimens from patients with liver cirrhosis (in the absence of other disease) showed the same findings as detected by immunohistochemistry in animal models. The results provide evidence of the association between liver cirrhosis and bone marrow alterations by demonstrating the bone marrow sinusoidal endothelium lesions in both a rat model and patients. It also indicates that activation or injury of bone marrow sinusoidal endothelium mediated by E-selectin, P-selectin, and vWF might have a role in pathogenesis of bone marrow changes during liver cirrhosis. The lesions of bone marrow sinusoidal endothelium might contribute to the hematological abnormalities in the end stage of liver disease.
