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

backgroundAcetaminophen (APAP)-induced acute liver injury (AILI) is the most prevalent cause of acute liver failure and mitochondrial dysfunction plays a dominant role in the pathogenesis of AILI. Mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) is an important marker for maintaining mitochondrial functional homeostasis, but its functions in AILI are unclear. This study aimed to investigate the function of TFAM and its regulatory molecular mechanism in the progression of AILI.

methodsThe roles of TFAM and DEAD (Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp) box polypeptide 3 X-linked (DDX3X) in AILI were determined with TFAM overexpression and DDX3X knockdown, respectively.

resultsTFAM expression was suppressed in AILI patients. TFAM overexpression alleviated liver necrosis and mitochondrial dysfunction. Treatment of the AILI mice model with N-acetylcysteine (NAC), a drug used to treat APAP overdose, resulted in significant TFAM activation. In vivo experiments confirmed that TFAM expression was negatively regulated by DDX3X. Mechanistic studies showed that nuclear respiratory factor 2 (NRF-2), a key regulator of TFAM, was selectively activated after DDX3X knockdown via activated peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator 1 (PGC-1α), in vivo and in vitro.

conclusionsThis study demonstrates that depressed hepatic TFAM plays a key role in the pathogenesis of AILI, which is regulated by the DDX3X-PGC1α-NRF2 signaling pathway.
