Intertwined roles for GDF-15, HMGB1, and MIG/CXCL9 in Pediatric Acute Liver Failure.
Article in Frontiers in systems biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Introduction: Pediatric Acute Liver Failure (PALF) presents as a rapidly evolving, multifaceted, and devastating clinical syndrome whose precise etiology remains incompletely understood. Consequently, predicting outcomes-whether survival or mortality-and informing liver transplantation decisions in PALF remain challenging. We have previously implicated High-Mobility Group Box 1 (HMGB1) as a central mediator in PALF-associated dynamic inflammation networks that could be recapitulated in acetaminophen (APAP)-treated mouse hepatocytes (HC) Methods: 28 and 23 inflammatory mediators including HMGB1 and GDF15 were measured in serum samples from PALF patients and cell supernatants from wild-type (C57BL/6) mouse hepatocytes (HC) and from cells from HC-specific HMGB1-null mice (HC-HMGB1 Results: Circulating GDF-15 was elevated significantly ( Discussion: This study suggests GDF-15 as a novel PALF outcome biomarker, posits GDF-15 alongside HMGB1 as a central node within the intricate web of systemic inflammation dynamics in PALF, and infers a novel, negative regulatory role for MIG.
