Glycyrrhizic Acid Inhibits Core Fucosylation Modification Modulated EMT and Attenuates Bleomycin-Induced Pulmonary Fibrosis.
Article in Evidence-based complementary and alternative medicine : eCAM, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a fatal and incurable chronic interstitial lung disease with an unknown etiology. Recent evidence suggests that epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is one of the possible factors in the pathogenesis of pulmonary fibrosis. Glycyrrhizic acid (GA) is a natural active ingredient extracted from the root of the traditional Chinese herb licorice, which has been shown in previous studies to have the effect of alleviating lung injury. In this study, our objective was to investigate whether GA could ameliorate pulmonary fibrosis by altering EMT, as well as the therapeutic potential of changing core fucosylation (CF) to target EMT-related pathways. First, we verified that GA partially reverses EMT in a rat model of bleomycin-induced lung interstitial fibrosis, alleviating pulmonary fibrosis, and implying that GA has antifibrotic potential. Next, we discovered that GA attenuated lung interstitial fibrosis by reducing CF modifications to some extent. Interestingly, we found that GA therapy reduced the expression of phosphorylated Smad2/3 (p-Smad2/3) and
