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

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a lethal progressive fibrotic lung disease. The development of IPF involves different molecular and cellular processes, and recent studies indicate that lactate plays a significant role in promoting the progression of the disease. Nevertheless, the mechanism by which lactate metabolism is regulated and the downstream effects remain unclear. The molecular chaperone CCT6A performs multiple functions in a variety of biological processes. Our research has identified a potential association between CCT6A and serum lactate levels in IPF patients. Herein, we found that CCT6A was highly expressed in type 2 alveolar epithelial cells (AEC2s) of fibrotic lung tissues and correlated with disease severity. Lactate increases the accumulation of lipid droplets in epithelial cells. CCT6A inhibits lipid synthesis by blocking the production of lactate in AEC2s and alleviates bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis in mice. In addition, our results revealed that CCT6A blocks HIF-1α-mediated lactate production by driving the VHL-dependent ubiquitination and degradation of HIF-1α and further inhibits lipid accumulation in fibrotic lungs. In conclusion, we propose that there is a pivotal regulatory role of CCT6A in lactate metabolism in pulmonary fibrosis, and strategies aimed at targeting these key molecules could represent potential therapeutic approaches for pulmonary fibrosis.
