Soluble Herpes Virus Entry Mediator and Type II/III Interferons Are Upregulated in Primary Biliary Cholangitis.

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
Bacterial translocation-induced inflammation and immune dysfunction are recognised factors contributing to the pathogenesis of primary biliary cholangitis (PBC). However, the specific involvement of interferons (IFNs) and soluble checkpoints (sol-CRs) in shaping the immune landscape in PBC patients remains unexplored. Furthermore, the influence of ursodeoxycholic acid (UDC) on these immune mediators is unknown. Twenty-eight cytokines and 14 sol-CRs were quantified by Luminex assays in plasma samples from 64 PBC patients and 10 healthy controls (HCs). D-lactate was measured as a marker of bacterial translocation. The PBC subgroups were: 24 UDC responders (UDCRs), 18 UDC non-responders (UDCNRs) and 22 patients with end-stage cirrhotic PBC (ESPBC). Soluble herpes virus entry mediator (HVEM) was upregulated in the UDCR subgroup compared to the HC group (
