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

purposeDrug-induced liver injuries (DILI) comprise a significant proportion of adverse drug reactions leading to hospitalizations and death. One frequent DILI is granulomatous inflammation from exposure to harmful metabolites that activate inflammatory pathways of immune cells of the liver, which may act as a barrier to isolate the irritating stimulus and limit tissue damage.

methodsParalleling the accumulation of CFZ precipitates in the liver, granulomatous inflammation was studied to gain insight into its effect on liver structure and function. A structural analog that does not precipitate within macrophages was also studied using micro-analytical approaches. Depleting macrophages was used to inhibit granuloma formation and assess its effect on drug bioaccumulation and toxicity.

resultsGranuloma-associated macrophages showed a distinct phenotype, differentiating them from non-granuloma macrophages. Granulomas were induced by insoluble CFZ cargo, but not by the more soluble analog, pointing to precipitation being a factor driving granulomatous inflammation. Granuloma-associated macrophages showed increased activation of lysosomal master-regulator transcription factor EB (TFEB). Inhibiting granuloma formation increased hepatic necrosis and systemic toxicity in CFZ-treated animals.

conclusionsGranuloma-associated macrophages are a specialized cell population equipped to actively sequester and stabilize cytotoxic chemotherapeutic agents. Thus, drug-induced granulomas may function as drug sequestering "organoids" -an induced, specialized sub-compartment- to limit tissue damage.
