Bile Acids-Based Therapies for Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis: Current Landscape and Future Developments.
Review in Cells, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a rare, chronic liver disease with no approved therapies. The ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) has been widely used, although there is no evidence that the use of UDCA delays the time to liver transplant or increases survival. Several candidate drugs are currently being developed. The largest group of these new agents is represented by FXR agonists, including obeticholic acid, cilofexor, and tropifexor. Other agents that target bile acid metabolism are ASTB/IBAP inhibitors and fibroblasts growth factor (FGF)19 analogues. Cholangiocytes, the epithelial bile duct cells, play a role in PSC development. Recent studies have revealed that these cells undergo a downregulation of GPBAR1 (TGR5), a bile acid receptor involved in bicarbonate secretion and immune regulation. Additional agents under evaluation are PPARs (elafibranor and seladelpar), anti-itching agents such as MAS-related G-protein-coupled receptors antagonists, and anti-fibrotic and immunosuppressive agents. Drugs targeting gut bacteria and bile acid pathways are also under investigation, given the strong link between PSC and gut microbiota.
