Paritaprevir ameliorates experimental acute lung injury in vitro and in vivo.
Article in Archives of pharmacal research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Paritaprevir is a potent inhibitor of the NS3/4A protease used to treat chronic hepatitis C virus infection. However, its therapeutic effect on acute lung injury (ALI) remains to be elucidated. In this study, we investigated the effect of paritaprevir on a lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced two-hit rat ALI model. The anti-ALI mechanism of paritaprevir was also studied in human pulmonary microvascular endothelial (HM) cells following LPS-induced injury in vitro. Administration of 30 mg/kg paritaprevir for 3 days protected rats from LPS-induced ALI, as reflected by the changes in the lung coefficient (from 0.75 to 0.64) and lung pathology scores (from 5.17 to 5.20). Furthermore, the levels of the protective adhesion protein VE-cadherin and tight junction protein claudin-5 increased, and the cytoplasmic p-FOX-O1 and nuclear β-catenin and FOX-O1 levels decreased. Similar effects were observed in vitro with LPS-treated HM cells, including decreased nuclear β-catenin and FOX-O1 levels and higher VE-cadherin and claudin-5 levels. Moreover, β-catenin inhibition resulted in higher p-FOX-O1 levels in the cytoplasm. These results suggested that paritaprevir could alleviate experimental ALI via the β-catenin/p-Akt/ FOX-O1 signaling pathway.
