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

Liver transplantation (LT) remains the only effective treatment for end-stage liver disease. Autophagy critically regulates liver ischemia–reperfusion (I/R) injury. Transmembrane 9 superfamily member 1 (TM9SF1) is a transmembrane protein associated with the elevation of autophagy. However, the role and mechanism of this protein in liver I/R injury have not been explored. We observed upregulated TM9SF1 expression in liver I/R mice models and AML12 cells subjected to hypoxia-reoxygenation (H/R). Using TM9SF1 adeno-associated virus (AAV) to generate overexpression and knockdown (KD) mice with liver I/R injury, we found that TM9SF1-overexpressing mice exhibited exacerbated liver damage, inflammation, and autophagy, whereas KD-TM9SF1 mice showed opposite results. Mechanistically, we found that TM9SF1 and Annexin A2 (ANXA2) interacted and jointly promoted the expression of autophagy levels during liver I/R injury. Virtual screening of FDA-approved compounds identified lomitapide as an inhibitor that selectively suppresses TM9SF1 expression, thereby attenuating I/R injury. In general, our findings indicated that TM9SF1 and ANXA2 interact with each other, promoting autophagy levels through activating the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway, thereby aggravating liver I/R injury. Targeting TM9SF1-ANXA2 may be a potential therapeutic strategy.
