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 diseases represent a major health problem worldwide, in particular, acute liver injury is associated with high mortality and morbidity. Inflammatory macrophages and hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) are known to be involved in the pathogenesis of acute liver injury. In this study, we have investigated the implication of STAT3 inhibition in acute liver injury/early fibrogenesis. In fibrotic human livers, we found STAT3 mRNA expression was significantly upregulated and correlated with collagen I expression. In vitro, STAT3 signaling pathway was found to be activated in TGFβ-activated HSCs and inflammatory macrophages. STAT3 inhibitor, WP1066 significantly inhibited TGFβ-induced collagen I, vimentin and α-SMA expression, and contractility in human HSCs. In LPS- and IFNγ-induced pro-inflammatory macrophages, WP1066 strongly attenuated nitric-oxide release and expression of major inflammatory markers such as TNF-α, iNOS, CCL2, IL-1β, IL-6, and CCR2.
