A network map of macrophage-stimulating protein (MSP) signaling.
Article in Journal of cell communication and signaling, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Macrophage-stimulating protein (MSP), a serum-derived growth factor belonging to the plasminogen-related kringle domain family, is mainly produced by the liver and released into the blood. MSP is the only known ligand for RON ("Recepteur d'Origine Nantais", also known as MST1R), which is a member of the receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) family. MSP is associated with many pathological conditions, including cancer, inflammation, and fibrosis. Activation of the MSP/RON system regulates main downstream signaling pathways, including phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/ AKT serine/threonine kinase/ (PI3-K/AKT), mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK), c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) & Focal adhesion kinase (FAK). These pathways are mainly involved in cell proliferation, survival, migration, invasion, angiogenesis & chemoresistance. In this work, we created a pathway resource of signaling events mediated by MSP/RON considering its contribution to diseases. We provide an integrated pathway reaction map of MSP/RON that is composed of 113 proteins and 26 reactions based on the curation of data from the published literature. The consolidated pathway map of MSP/RON mediated signaling events contains seven molecular associations, 44 enzyme catalysis, 24 activation/inhibition, six translocation events, 38 gene regulation events, and forty-two protein expression events. The MSP/RON signaling pathway map can be freely accessible through the WikiPathways Database URL: https://classic.wikipathways.org/index.php/Pathway:WP5353 .
