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

Activation of T cells and pro-inflammatory cytokines are essential for human autoimmune hepatitis. RAGE is one of the receptors for the inflammatory alarm molecule high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), and it is involved in autoimmune hepatitis. However, the molecular mechanism of RAGE in the context of autoimmune hepatitis remains elusive. This study aimed to identify the function and mechanism of RAGE in autoimmune hepatitis. The role and underlying mechanisms of RAGE signaling-driven immune inflammatory response in ConA-induced experimental hepatitis were examined using the RAGE-deficient mice. We found that the RAGE deficiency protected the mouse from liver inflammatory injury caused by the ConA challenge. mRNA expression of VCAM-1, IL-6, and TNF-α within the livers is markedly decreased in RAGE-deficient mice compared to wild-type mice. In parallel, RAGE deficiency leads to reduced levels of the serum pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-6 and TNF-α as compared with wild-type control mice. RAGE-deficient mice exhibit increased hepatic NK cells and decreased CD4
