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

introductionLysyl hydroxylase 3 (LH3) is a collagen post-translational modifying enzyme; it is abnormally activated during the formation of collagen cross-links. iCRT3 is an inhibitor of both Wnt and β-catenin responsive transcription. We hypothesized that LH3 is regulated by TGFβ1/Smad3 signaling and Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathways. Some evidence suggested that there is complicated cross-talk between the two signal pathways in the genesis of pulmonary fibrosis. MATERIAL AND

methodsThe normal culturing human lung cancer cell line A549 was derived from pulmonary epithelial cells. Transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) was induced A549 cells of pulmonary fibrosis. MTT assays detected cell growth stimulation by TGF-β1; collagen pyridine-crosslinking contents were detected by ELISA kits. Immunofluorescence were used to evaluate expression of key molecules in PLOD3 (LH3), Wnt/β-catenin and TGFβ1/Smad3 pathways.

resultsOur findings suggested that iCRT3 could decrease LH3 protein expression (

conclusionsThis study suggests that PLOD3 (LH3) represents a target to prevent pulmonary fibrosis.
