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

Acute pancreatitis (AP) is an acute inflammatory disease of the exocrine pancreas. The pathogenesis of AP is still unclear, and there is currently no specific treatment. A variety of immune cells infiltrate in AP, which may play an important role in the progression of the disease. In this study, for the first time, scRNA-Seq and Bulk RNA-Seq data were used to show the characteristics of immune cell infiltration in AP, and to explore the specific molecular markers of different cell types. The present study also investigated cell-to-cell communication networks using the CellChat package, and AP-specific gene signatures (Clic1, Sat1, Serpina3n, Atf3, Lcn2, Osmr, Ccl9, Hspb1, Anxa2, Krt8, Cd44, Cd9, Hsp90aa1, Tmsb10, Hmox1, Fxyd5, Plin2, Pnp) were identified through integrative analysis of multiple sequencing datasets. We also defined disease-specific associated genes in different cell types, revealing dynamic changes through cell trajectory and pseudo-time analysis using the Monocle2 package. The results showed that macrophages were significantly increased in acute pancreatitis, and the number of interactions and interaction weight/strength of the macrophages in AP were significantly higher than those in the controls. The activities of various signaling pathways were abnormally regulated such as apoptosis, oxidative stress, lysosome, autophagy, ferroptosis, and inflammatory responses signaling pathways. In conclusion, this study comprehensively depicted the immune microenvironment of AP, explored the interaction network between different cell types, and defined AP-specific gene signatures, providing many new directions for basic research in AP.
