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

backgroundAquaporins (AQPs) are a class of channel proteins expressed on the cell membrane, responsible for facilitating the transport of water molecules and certain small solutes across the membrane. Their dysregulation is involved in the occurrence and progression of major lung diseases.

findingsWe systematically reviewed the expression and functional alterations of AQPs in acute lung injury (ALI), pneumonia, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pulmonary fibrosis (PF) and lung cancer, and integrated the potential molecular mechanisms. In addition, we examine the regulatory mechanisms of traditional Chinese medicine on lung AQPs, and summarizes the research progress of inhibitors and small molecular compounds that modulate AQPs in lung diseases. IMPLICATIONS: AQPs may serve as promising therapeutic targets for lung diseases. This review offers novel insights and a foundation for the diagnosis, treatment, and drug development of lung diseases, positioning AQPs as a potential tool in combating these conditions.
