The association between acute fatty liver disease and nitric oxide during malaria in pregnancy.
Article in Malaria journal, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundLiver disease is a common feature of malaria in pregnancy, but its pathogenesis remains unclear.
methodsTo understand the pathogenesis of liver disease during malaria in pregnancy, comparative proteomic analysis of the liver in a mouse model of malaria in pregnancy was performed.
resultsDecreased levels of mitochondrial and peroxisomal proteins were observed in the livers of pregnant mice infected with the lethal rodent malaria parasite Plasmodium berghei strain NK65. By contrast, increased levels of perilipin-2, amyloid A-1, and interferon (IFN)-γ signalling pathway-related proteins were observed in the livers of infected pregnant mice, suggesting that IFN-γ signalling may contribute to the development of liver disease during malaria in pregnancy. IFN-γ signalling is a potential trigger of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) expression. Liver disease associated with microvesicular fatty infiltration and elevated liver enzymes in pregnant wild-type mice infected with malaria parasites was improved by iNOS deficiency.
conclusionsIn this study, a causative role of iNOS in liver disease associated with microvesicular fatty infiltration during malaria in pregnancy was demonstrated. These findings provide important insight for understanding the role of iNOS-mediated metabolic responses and the pathogenesis of high-risk liver diseases in pregnancy, such as acute fatty liver.
