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

Hepatic lipid deposition is a key factor in progressing metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). This study investigates the impact of the LIM domain and actin-binding protein 1 (LIMA1) on hepatic steatotic in MASLD and explore the underlying mechanisms. Increased levels of LIMA1 is observed in both serum and serum sEV of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) patients compared to healthy controls, with AUROC values of 0.76 and 0.86, respectively. Furthermore, increased LIMA1 O-GlcNAcylation is observed in mouse models of MASLD, and steatotic hepatocytes. Mechanistic studies revealed that steatosis upregulated Host cell factor 1 (HCF1) and O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) expression, leading to catalyzed O-GlcNAcylation at the T662 site of LIMA1 and subsequent inhibition of its ubiquitin-dependent degradation. O-GlcNAcylation of LIMA1 enhances hepatocyte lipid deposition by activating β-catenin/FASn-associated signaling. Additionally, compared with their AAV8-TBG-LIMA1-WT counterparts, AAV8-TBG-LIMA1
