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

backgroundSerine hydroxymethyltransferase 2 (SHMT2) activity ensures that cells have a survival advantage in ischemic conditions and regulates redox homeostasis. In this study, we aimed to investigate the role of SHMT2 after hepatic ischemia-reperfusion (IR), which involves hypoxia, ischemic conditions, and cell apoptosis.

methodsA 70% IR model was established in C57BL/6J mice with or without SHMT2 knockdown. H&E staining, liver weight/body weight, serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels and cell apoptosis were tested to analyze liver damage and function. Then, the related cellular signals were probed.

resultsThe level of SHMT2 protein was significantly increased at 24 h and 48 h after IR (

conclusionsKnockdown of SHMT2 worsens IR injury through the ROS/JNK/P53 signaling pathway. Our discovery expands the understanding of both molecular and metabolic mechanisms involved in IR. SHMT2 is a possible therapeutic target to improve the prognosis of liver transplantation (LT) and subtotal hepatectomy.
