The polarizable and reprogrammable identity of Kupffer cells in Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis.
Article in Medical review (2021), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Kupffer cells (KCs) are the resident macrophages of the liver with similar origins to myeloid-derived macrophages. Once differentiated, KCs exhibit distinct cellular machinery capable of longevity and self-renewal, making them a crucial player in promoting effective intrahepatic communication. However, this gets compromised in disease states like Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH), where the loss of embryo-derived KCs (EmKCs) is observed. Despite this, other KC-like and KC-derived populations start to form and contribute to a variety of roles in NASH pathogenesis, often adopting a NASH-associated molecular signature. Here we offer a brief overview of recent reports describing KC polarization and reprogramming in the liver. We describe the complexities of KC cellular identity, their proposed ability to reprogram to fibroblast-like and endothelial-like cells, and the potential implications in NASH.
