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

Alpha-1antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) results from the intracellular polymerization and retention of mutant alpha-1antitrypsin (AAT) within the endoplasmic reticulum of hepatocytes. This causes cirrhosis whilst the deficiency of circulating AAT predisposes to early onset emphysema. This is an exciting time for researchers in the field with the development of novel therapies based on understanding the pathobiology of disease. I review here augmentation therapy to prevent the progression of lung disease and a range of approaches to treat the liver disease associated with the accumulation of mutant AAT: modifying proteostasis networks that are activated by Z AAT polymers, stimulating autophagy, small interfering RNA and small molecules to block intracellular polymerization, and stem cell technology to correct the genetic defect that underlies AATD.
