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

Pulmonary fibrosis is a severe lung disease characterized by sustained propagation of lung fibroblasts and relentless accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM). Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is the most severe chronic form of pulmonary fibrosis and results both in the gradual exchange of normal lung parenchyma with fibrotic tissue and in the irreversible impairment of gas exchange in the lung. Despite the urgency for novel therapies in IPF treatment, there is no effective and proven medical therapy available. Molecular mechanisms underlying IPF pathogenesis include aberrant ECM signaling through the canonical integrin/PI3K/Akt/mTORC1 signal transduction pathway. One important and well-characterized downstream effector of this pathway is the cellular protein synthesis machinery. Here we will review the recent advances in our understanding of the function of ECM and integrin receptor signaling in development of IPF and will present evidence indicating that the dysregulation of the eIF4F-mediated translational apparatus is an important factor in the development and progression of IPF and other fibrotic disorders. We further discuss the perspectives and challenges to curbing this deadly disease by targeting aberrant translation.
