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

Autophagy is a critical lysosomal pathway that degrades cytoplasmic components to maintain cell homeostasis and provide substrates for energy metabolism. A study revealed that heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1)-transduced bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) could protect 50% reduced-size liver transplantation (RSLT) in a rat model. However, the mechanisms remain mostly unknown. The aim of the present study was to explore the effects and related mechanism of autophagy on the protection conferred by HO-1-transduced BM-MSCs (HO-1/BM-MSCs) on 50% RSLT in a rat model. The authors established an acute rejection model following 50% RSLT in rats, with recipients divided into three groups receiving treatment with BM-MSCs, HO-1/BM-MSCs or normal saline (NS) injected through the dorsal penile vein. Transplanted liver tissues at 0, 1, 3, 5, 7, 10 and 14 days following transplantation were acquired for further analysis. The results indicated that the expression of autophagy-related proteins LC3 and Beclin-1 increased, the levels of ERK and p-ERK increased, and the levels of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) and p-mTOR decreased in the HO-1/BM-MSCs. These observations indicated that autophagy is involved in the protective effects of HO-1/BM-MSCs on liver grafts following RSLT, possibly via upregulation of autophagy-related proteins through the ERK/mTOR signaling pathway.
