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

Background & Aims: Hepatic sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (HSOS) induced by pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs) is a life-threatening liver injury for which standardized chronic models are lacking. This study aimed to establish a clinically relevant chronic PA-HSOS murine model and to identify potential therapeutic targets. Methods: A 28-day model was developed using key alkaloids from Results: The model faithfully recapitulated human HSOS, characterized by elevated liver enzymes (ALT, 1.6-fold, Conclusions: This first chronic PA-HSOS murine model closely mirrors human disease and identifies Serpine1 as a critical therapeutic target. Targeting the Serpine1-p53 axis with TM5441 represents a promising strategy to mitigate endothelial injury in PA-HSOS. Impact and implications: This study establishes a chronic PA-HSOS (pyrrolizidine alkaloid-induced hepatic sinusoidal obstruction syndrome) model that more accurately replicates human disease progression, thereby overcoming the limitations of previous acute models for mechanistic and therapeutic research. The researchers identify Serpine1 as a key regulatory target that could lead to new therapies for PA-HSOS by reducing endothelial senescence and inflammation. These findings provide clinicians and researchers with improved tools for studying drug-induced liver injury and a pathway for translating discoveries into clinical trials. The therapeutic compound TM5441 shows promise for reversing liver dysfunction and vascular damage, while the model itself may aid in the development of better diagnostic criteria and prevention strategies. Clinical trial number: Not applicable.
