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

Preliminary studies of liver regeneration induced by partial hepatectomy (PHE) identified a substantial depletion of hepatic retinoid stores, by greater than 70%, in regenerating livers of wild-type C57Bl/6J mice. To understand this, we compared responses of wild-type and lecithin:retinol acyltransferase (Lrat)-deficient mice, which totally lack hepatic retinoid stores, to PHE. The Lrat-deficient livers showed delayed regeneration in the first 24 h after PHE. At 12 h after PHE, we observed significantly less mRNA expression for growth factors and cytokines implicated in regulating the priming phase of liver regeneration, specifically for Hgf and Tgfα, but not Tgfβ. Compared with wild-type mice, the changes in mRNA levels for p21 and cyclins E1, B1, and A2 mRNAs and for hepatocellular BrdU incorporation and mitoses were delayed (i.e., shifted to later times) in regenerating Lrat(-/-) livers. Concentrations of all-trans-retinoic acid were significantly lower in the livers of Lrat(-/-) mice following PHE, and this was accompanied by diminished expression of known retinoid-responsive genes. At later times after PHE, the rate of liver weight restoration for Lrat(-/-) mice was parallel to that of wild-type mice, although additional biochemical differences were observed. Thus, hepatic retinoid stores are required for maintaining expression of signaling molecules that regulate cell proliferation and differentiation immediately after hepatic injury, accounting for the delayed restoration of liver mass in Lrat(-/-) mice.
