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

Liver fibrosis is a pathological process characterized by the excessive synthesis and accumulation of extracellular matrix proteins (ECMs) contributed mainly by the activated hepatic stellate cells (HSCs). Currently, no direct and effective anti-fibrotic agents have been approved for clinical use worldwide. Although the dysregulation of Eph receptor tyrosine kinase EphB2 has been reported to associate with the development of liver fibrosis, the involvement of other Eph family members in liver fibrosis remains underexplored. In this study, we found that the expression of EphB1 is significantly increased accompanying remarkable neddylation in activated HSCs. Mechanistically, this neddylation enhanced the kinase activity of EphB1 by the prevention of its degradation, thereby promoting the proliferation, migration, and activation of HSCs. Our findings revealed the involvement of EphB1 in the development of liver fibrosis through its neddylation, which provides new insights into the Eph receptor signaling and a potential target for the treatment of liver fibrosis.
