The glucose-to-acetate metabolic flux that drives endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition via TGF-β signaling.
Article in Cell metabolism, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
The metabolic mechanisms supporting the process of endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) remain largely unknown. Here, Zhu et al. describe a novel role for acetate and ACC2 in regulating EndMT and atherosclerosis via modulation of the TGF-β signaling. This study sheds light on the role of glucose-derived metabolites that drive endothelial pathophysiology.
