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

backgroundFibroblast growth factor 21 is a molecule responsible for cell energy regulation, mainly produced from hepatocytes, while O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase is a mandatory enzyme for DNA repair.

methodsBecause tumors in the livers might enhance hepatocytic FGF-21 production for supporting tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) to promote cancers, the intrahepatic tumor injection model was performed.

resultsIndeed, intrahepatic injection of MC38 cells in wild-type mice increased FGF-21 in serum and liver tissue. Murine hepatocytes excreted FGF-21 after induction by cell stresses, lipopolysaccharide, and MC38 supernatant, while human hepatocytes (HepG2) produced FGF-21 after incubation with the conditioned media of CaCO

conclusionTAM transformation in mgmt null macrophages induced more severe cell injuries than mgmt control macrophages, leading to the less abundant intratumoral TAM and increased FGF-21 to attenuate the injuries in mgmt null mice with tumors. Further studies on FGF-21 and MGMT in cancers are interesting.
