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

The prevalence of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is rapidly increasing and associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD), the major cause of mortality in NASH patients. Although sharing common risk factors, the mechanisms by which NASH may directly contribute to the development to CVD remain poorly understood. The aim of this study is to gain insight into key molecular processes of NASH that drive atherosclerosis development. Thereto, a time-course study was performed in Ldlr-/-.Leiden mice fed a high-fat diet to induce NASH and atherosclerosis. The effects on NASH and atherosclerosis were assessed and transcriptome analysis was performed. Ldlr-/-.Leiden mice developed obesity, hyperlipidemia and insulin resistance, with steatosis and hepatic inflammation preceding atherosclerosis development. Transcriptome analysis revealed a time-dependent increase in pathways related to NASH and fibrosis followed by an increase in pro-atherogenic processes in the aorta. Gene regulatory network analysis identified specific liver regulators related to lipid metabolism (SC5D, LCAT and HMGCR), inflammation (IL1A) and fibrosis (PDGF, COL3A1), linked to a set of aorta target genes related to vascular inflammation (TNFA) and atherosclerosis signaling (CCL2 and FDFT1). The present study reveals pathogenic liver processes that precede atherosclerosis development and identifies hepatic key regulators driving the atherogenic pathways and regulators in the aorta.
