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

backgroundActivation of Adenosine 5'-monophosphate-activated protein kinase/Sirtuin1 (AMPK/SIRT1) exerts an effect in alleviating obesity and gut damage. Sodium nitroprusside (SNP), a nitric oxide (NO) donor, has been reported to activate AMPK. This study was to investigate the effect of SNP on HFD induced gut dysfunction and the mechanism.

methodsSNP was applied on lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulated Caco-2 cell monolayers which mimicked intestinal epithelial barrier dysfunction and HFD-fed mice which were complicated by gut dysfunction. Then AMPKα/SIRT1 pathway and gut barrier indicators were investigated.

resultsSNP rescued the loss of tight junction proteins ZO-1 and occludin, the inhibition of AMPKα/SIRT1 in LPS stimulated Caco-2 cell monolayers, and the effects were not shown when AMPKa1 was knocked-down by siRNA. SNP also alleviated HFD induced obesity and gut dysfunction in mice, as indicated by the decreasing of intestinal permeability, the increasing expression of ZO-1 and occludin, the decreasing levels of pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-6, and the repairing of gut microbiota dysbiosis. These effects were complicated by the increased colonic NO content and the activated AMPKα/SIRT1 signaling.

conclusionsThe results may imply that SNP, as a NO donor, alleviates HFD induced gut dysfunction probably by activating the AMPKα/SIRT1 signaling pathway.
