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

Liver fibrosis, a condition that is characterized by excessive production and accumulation of extracellular matrix, including collagen, is the most common outcome of chronic liver injuries of different etiologies. Vitamin A-storing hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) are considered to be the main source of this collagen production, with activation in response to liver injury. In contrast, the contribution of other cell types to this fibrogenic response remains largely elusive due to the lack of specific surface markers to identify and isolate these cells for detailed analysis. Here, we identify a mesenchymal population of thymus cell antigen 1 (Thy1)
