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

Background & Aims: Portal hypertension (PH) is a frequent and severe clinical syndrome associated with chronic liver disease. Considering the mechanobiological effects of hydrostatic pressure and shear stress on endothelial cells, we hypothesised that PH might influence the phenotype of liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs) during disease progression. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of increased hydrodynamic pressure on LSECs and to identify endothelial-derived biomarkers of PH. Methods: Primary LSECs were cultured under normal or increased hydrodynamic pressure within a pathophysiological range (1 Results: Transcriptomic analysis revealed marked deleterious effect of pathological pressure in LSECs and identified chromobox 7 ( Conclusions: We characterise the detrimental effects of increased hydrodynamic pressure on the sinusoidal endothelium, identify CBX7 as a pressure-sensitive transcription factor, and propose the combination of two of its reported products as biomarkers of PH. Impact and Implications: Increased pressure in the portal venous system that typically occurs during chronic liver disease (called portal hypertension) is one of the main drivers of related clinical complications, which are linked to a higher risk of death. In this study, we found that pathological pressure has a harmful effect on liver sinusoidal endothelial cells and identified CBX7 as a key protein involved in this process. CBX7 regulates the expression of E-cadherin and SPINK1, and consequently, measuring these proteins in the blood of patients with chronic liver disease allows the prediction of portal hypertension and clinically significant portal hypertension.
