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

NRF2 has been recognized as a central hub that neutralizes ROS and restores intracellular redox balance. In addition to KEAP1 mediated ubiquitin-proteasome degradation, post-translational modifications of NRF2 are critical for regulating its nuclear translocation and activation but precise mechanisms underly this regulation remain elusive. In this study, we found that SIRT7 was sufficient and essential for NRF2 nuclear localization and activation. Knockdown of SIRT7 significantly impaired intercellular ROS homeostasis and increased apoptosis in response to oxidative stress including chemodrug treatment. SIRT7 interacted with NRF2 and induced its deacetylation, by which inhibited binding of NRF2 to KEAP1, enhanced NRF2 protein stability and promoted its nuclear translocation. SIRT7 induced NRF2 deacetylation at K443 and K518 sites. Lysine-arginine mutations of these sites (2KR NRF2) significantly reduced KEAP1/NRF2 binding, increased NRF2 nuclear translocation and target gene expression, decreased intercellular ROS level, whereas lysine-glutamine (2KQ) mutant showed similar subcellular localization and functions with WT. Knockdown SIRT7 in hepatocyte exacerbated Oxaliplatin (Oxa) induced hepatic injury and inflammation. While AAV8-NRF2-mediated hepatic NRF2 overexpression or NRF2 agonist significantly prevented Oxa-induced elevation of ALT levels, sinusoidal dilatation and inflammation in SIRT7
