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

Bile reflux is one of the main causes of gastric intestinal metaplasia (IM) which is an important precancerous lesion. Our previous study has shown that ectopic expression of Histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) promotes the activation of intestinal markers in bile acids (BA) induced gastric IM cells; however, the mechanism underlying how HDAC6-mediated epigenetic modifications regulate intestinal markers is not clear. In this study, we aimed to investigate the downstream targets of HDAC6 and the underlying mechanism in the process of BA induced gastric IM. We demonstrated that deoxycholic acid (DCA) upregulated HDAC6 in gastric cells, which further inhibited the transcription of Forkhead box protein 3 (FOXP3). Then, FOXP3 transcriptionally inhibited Hepatocyte nuclear factor 4α (HNF4α), which further inhibits the expression of downstream intestinal markers. These molecules have been shown to be clinically relevant, as FOXP3 levels were negatively correlated with HDAC6 and HNF4α in IM tissues. Transgenic mice experiments confirmed that HNF4α overexpression combined with DCA treatment induced gastric mucosa to secrete intestinal mucus and caused an abnormal mucosal structure. Our findings suggest that HDAC6 reduces FOXP3 through epigenetic modification, thus forming a closed loop HDAC6/FOXP3/HNF4α to promote gastric IM. Inhibition of HDAC6 may be a potential approach to prevent gastric IM in patients with bile reflux.
