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

Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is a chronic cholestatic liver disease characterized by autoimmune-mediated destruction of intrahepatic bile ducts. Emerging evidence suggests that circular RNAs (circRNAs) play regulatory roles in autoimmune diseases, but their involvement in PBC remains unclear. This study focused on the hsa_circ_0000711 and its potential mechanism in PBC pathogenesis. The study included 46 PBC patients, 40 healthy controls, and 40 patients with other liver diseases. Human intrahepatic biliary epithelial cells (HiBEpic) were treated with 1 mM glycochenodeoxycholic acid (GCDCA) to establish a PBC cell model. Hsa_circ_0000711 was overexpressed or knocked down using plasmid transfection and siRNA, respectively. Expression levels were analysed by qPCR/Western blot, cell viability by CCK-8, and hsa_circ_0000711-miR-185-5p interaction by luciferase assay. Serum hsa_circ_0000711 levels were significantly higher in PBC patients compared to healthy controls and other liver disease groups (
