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

Thrombospondin 1 (TSP1) is a matricellular glycoprotein that can be secreted by many cell types. Through binding to extracellular proteins and/or cell surface receptors, TSP1 modulates a variety of cellular functions. Since its discovery in 1971, TSP1 has been found to play important roles in multiple biological processes including angiogenesis, apoptosis, latent transforming growth factor-β activation, and immune regulation. Thrombospondin 1 is also involved in regulating many organ functions. However, the role of TSP1 in liver diseases has not been extensively addressed. In this review, we summarize the findings about the possible role that TSP1 plays in chronic liver diseases focusing on non-alcoholic fatty liver diseases, liver fibrosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma.
