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

The intestine and liver share a unique regenerative property that sets them apart from other mammalian visceral organs. The intestinal epithelium exhibits rapid renewal, making it one of the fastest renewing tissues in humans. Under physiological conditions, intestinal stem cells within each intestinal crypt continuously differentiate into the different types of intestinal epithelial cells to maintain intestinal homeostasis. However, when exposed to tissue damage or stressful conditions such as inflammation, intestinal epithelial cells in the gastrointestinal tract exhibit plasticity, allowing fully differentiated cells to regain their stem cell properties. Likewise, hepatic epithelial cells possess a remarkable regenerative capacity to restore lost liver mass through proliferation-mediated liver regeneration. When the proliferation-mediated regenerative capacity is impaired, hepatocytes and biliary epithelial cells (BECs) can undergo plasticity-mediated regeneration and replenish each other. The transition of mammalian liver progenitor cells to hepatocytes/BECs can be observed under tightly controlled experimental conditions such as severe hepatocyte injury accompanied by the loss of regenerative capacity. In this review, we will discuss the mechanism by which cellular plasticity contributes to the regeneration process and the potential therapeutic implications of understanding and harnessing cellular plasticity in the gut and liver.
