Review in Frontiers in medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Sialic acid is a common terminal monosaccharide residue on glycan chains, and desialylation of glycoproteins is considered an important biological signal. In the liver and other cell types, asialoglycoprotein receptor 1 (ASGR1) specifically recognizes and binds to exposed galactose or N-acetylgalactosamine (Gal/GalNAc) residues on desialylated glycoproteins, and activates downstream signaling pathways through receptor-mediated endocytosis (RME), thereby playing important roles in various physiological and pathological processes such as immune regulation, viral infection, hepatocellular carcinoma progression, and lipid metabolism. In addition, ASGR1 is regarded as a key target for liver-specific drug delivery. This review systematically describes the molecular structure and physiological functions of ASGR1, its roles in pathological processes, and its potential functions in extrahepatic tissues. It provides essential background information for a comprehensive understanding of ASGR1 and offers novel insights into future research directions.
