Integrated transcriptomic and phenotypic analyses reveal spatiotemporal variation in neutrophil Cd14 expression after hepatectomy.

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
Neutrophils are key mediators of both hepatic injury and repair. This study aimed to characterize the spatiotemporal dynamics of Cd14 expression in neutrophils following hepatectomy and to explore its potential role in liver regeneration. We performed an integrated transcriptomic and phenotypic analysis of neutrophil Cd14 expression using bioinformatics and flow cytometry in immune cells isolated from murine livers after 70% partial hepatectomy. Cd14 ranked among the top 10 markers distinguishing activated liver neutrophils from quiescent or stimulated non-hepatic neutrophils. Both Cd14 mRNA and CD14 protein levels were significantly upregulated in hepatic neutrophils, peaking at 24 h after hepatectomy (p = 0.012). Gene set enrichment analysis revealed that Cd14 was associated with Toll-like receptor 4 and IL-6/JAK/STAT3 signaling pathways-both implicated in hepatocyte proliferation-suggesting that Cd14 serves as a marker of a pro-regenerative neutrophil phenotype and represents a potential therapeutic target to enhance liver regeneration following hepatectomy.
