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

The 3,5-diethoxycarbonyl-1,4-dihydrocollidine (DDC) model leads to chronic cholestatic liver injury and therefore resembles human diseases such as sclerosing cholangitis and forms of metabolic liver diseases. The role of the interleukin-6/glycoprotein 130 (gp130) system in this context is still undefined. Therefore, conditional gp130 knockout and knockin mice were used to achieve hepatocyte-specific deletions of gp130 (gp130(Deltahepa)), gp130-dependent ras (gp130(DeltahepaRas)), and signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) (gp130(DeltahepaSTAT)) activation. These mice were treated with a DDC-containing diet and analyzed over time. Mice deficient in hepatic gp130 and STAT signaling showed increased and earlier mortality than wild-type and gp130(DeltahepaRas) animals. Over time, significantly more apoptosis and cholestasis became evident in gp130(Deltahepa) and gp130(DeltahepaSTAT) mice. These mice also displayed increased tumor necrosis factor-alpha expression, a diminished acute-phase response (lack of STAT3 and serum amyloid A activation), and enhanced immune cell infiltration in the liver. These were associated with stronger periportal oval cell activation. In addition, DDC treatment in gp130(Deltahepa) and gp130(DeltahepaSTAT) mice resulted in significantly stronger hepatic stellate cell activation. Long-term analysis revealed the development of severe liver fibrosis in gp130(Deltahepa) and gp130(DeltahepaSTAT) animals, as evidenced by increased collagen accumulation. Here we demonstrate that gp130/STAT signaling in hepatocytes provides protection in a cholestatic hepatitis mouse model. STAT3-dependent signaling pathways in hepatocytes protect from apoptosis and tissue injury, which subsequently reduce oval cell activation and prevent fibrosis progression.
