STAT1 expression in myeloid cells restrains murine norovirus-induced hepatitis and fibrosis.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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: Rare cases of non-hepatotropic virus (NHV) infection in humans can cause severe hepatitis and even acute liver failure. Clinically relevant animal models of NHV-induced hepatitis are limited, contributing to the incomplete understanding of pathological mechanisms. Murine norovirus (MNV) elicits hepatosplenomegaly in mice lacking the antiviral immune effector Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription-1 (STAT1), providing a model to investigate mechanisms of NHV-induced hepatic pathology. Methods: STAT1-sufficient and -deficient ( Results: MNV CR6 Conclusions: These results demonstrate that the role of STAT1 extends beyond restricting MNV dissemination and suggest that STAT1-dependent regulation of myeloid cell activation prevents acute hepatic necroinflammation and secondary fibrosis. This model of MNV-induced hepatitis may prove valuable in elucidating mechanisms of rare clinical complications.
