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

Fibroblasts are pleomorphic cells that have a multi-directional effect on organ morphogenesis, tissue homeostasis, and immune response. In fibrotic diseases, fibroblasts synthesize large amounts of extracellular matrix (ECM), leading to scarring and organ failure. Purine-rich box1 (PU.1) is a specific transcription factor of hematopoietic cell and belongs to the E26 transformation specificity (ETS) family. Recently, it was found that the transcription factor PU.1 is an important regulatory factor of the profibrotic gene expression program. TGF-β had been proved to play an important role in many ocular tissue fibrosis diseases, and up-regulated the expression of PU.1 in fibroblasts producing ECM in a Smad-3 dependent manner. We explore the effect of PU.1 on fibrosis of different ocular tissues from this perspective. This article reviews the role of PU.1 and its effects on fibrosis of ocular tissue and other tissues.
