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

objectiveSodium

designPrimary hepatic stellate cells (pHSCs) isolated from livers biopsies of patients with LF with different fibrosis grading were stained for NTCP. NTCP gene silencing, taurocholic acid (TCA), obeticholic acid (OCA), epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) and HA-100 dihydrochloride (HA-100) were used as tools to modulate NTCP expression on human HSC line (LX2). BA trafficking/uptake were assessed extracellularly (LX2 culture medium) and intracellularly following treatment with/without NTCP neutralizing antibody. LF models of C57/BL6 mice of carbon tetrachloride (CCl

resultspHSCs from F3/F4-scored patients of LF exhibit threefold increased NTCP expressions compared with F0-scored patients (p<0.0001). Sorted-activated HSCs (LX2

conclusionNTCP expression is linearly correlated with fibrosis severity. Modulated BA trafficking could be an important step in LF pathogenesis. Antagonising BA uptake may suggest a therapeutic strategy for preventing disease progression.
