Identification of differentially expressed long noncoding RNAs and pathways in liver tissues from rats with hepatic fibrosis.
Article in PloS one, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
To identify long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and their potential roles in hepatic fibrosis in rat liver issues induced by CCl4, lncRNAs and genes were analyzed in fibrotic rat liver tissues by RNA sequencing and verified by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Differentially expressed (DE) lncRNAs (DE-lncRNAs) and genes were subjected to bioinformatics analysis and used to construct a co-expression network. We identified 10 novel DE-lncRNAs that were downregulated during the hepatic fibrosis process. The cis target gene of DE-lncRNA, XLOC118358, was Met, and the cis target gene of the other nine DE-lncRNAs, XLOC004600, XLOC004605, XLOC004610, XLOC004611, XLOC004568, XLOC004580 XLOC004598, XLOC004601, and XLOC004602 was Nox4. The results of construction of a pathway-DEG co-expression network show that lncRNA-Met and lncRNAs-Nox4 were involved in oxidation-reduction processes and PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. Our results identified 10 DE-lncRNAs related to hepatic fibrosis, and the potential roles of DE-lncRNAs and target genes in hepatic fibrosis might provide new therapeutic strategies for hepatic fibrosis.
