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

Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), encompassing microRNAs (miRNAs), long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), and circular RNAs (circRNAs), have emerged as critical regulators of gene expression and cellular function. In alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD), chronic alcohol consumption disrupts the expression and function of ncRNAs in the liver and circulation, contributing to the disease's pathogenesis and progression. Dysregulated ncRNAs influence key pathways involved in hepatocyte injury, lipid metabolism, inflammation, and hepatic stellate cell (HSC) activation, thereby exacerbating steatosis, inflammation, and fibrosis. Furthermore, extracellular vesicles play a pivotal role in mediating ncRNA-driven intercellular communication, amplifying liver damage and fibrosis. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the multifaceted roles of ncRNAs in ALD, with a focus on their mechanistic contributions to disease development and progression. Additionally, we discuss the potential of ncRNAs as diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets, emphasizing their translational relevance in addressing the burden of ALD.
