Uncovering the Effect of SARS-CoV-2 on Liver Metabolism via Genome-Scale Metabolic Modeling for Reprogramming and Therapeutic Strategies.
Article in ACS omega, 2024. 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
Genome-scale metabolic models (GEMs) are promising computational tools that contribute to elucidating host-virus interactions at the system level and developing therapeutic strategies against viral infection. In this study, the effect of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) on liver metabolism was investigated using integrated GEMs of human hepatocytes and SARS-CoV-2. They were generated for uninfected and infected hepatocytes using transcriptome data. Reporter metabolite analysis resulted in significant transcriptional changes around several metabolites involved in xenobiotics, drugs, arachidonic acid, and leukotriene metabolisms due to SARS-CoV-2 infection. Flux balance analysis and minimization of metabolic adjustment approaches unraveled possible virus-induced hepatocellular reprogramming in fatty acid, glycerophospholipid, sphingolipid cholesterol, and folate metabolisms, bile acid biosynthesis, and carnitine shuttle among others. Reaction knockout analysis provided critical reactions in glycolysis, oxidative phosphorylation, purine metabolism, and reactive oxygen species detoxification subsystems. Computational analysis also showed that administration of dopamine, glucosamine, D-xylose, cysteine, and (
