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

contextNon-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), the most common chronic liver disease, can develop into metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD). Gypenosides (GP), the main phytochemical component of

objectiveWe investigate how GP modulate MAFLD-related hepatic steatosis and intestinal barrier injury. MATERIALS AND

methodsIn cell experiments, Caco-2 cells were treated with GP (150 or 200 μmol/L, 24 h), following lipopolysaccharide (LPS) exposure (10 μg/mL, 24 h) to mimic MAFLD

resultsGP at 200 μM significantly reversed LPS-induced decreases in transepithelial electrical resistance (TER) value (25%), protein expression of occludin (two fold) and ZO-1 (four fold), and the ratio of p-AMPK to AMPK (five fold), while partially repressing LPS-induced leakage of FD4 (50%) and LPS-induced increases in the Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) level (50%) and the ratio of p-p65 to p65 (55%). Compared with the model rats, rats with GP treatment presented a reduction in gain of weight and glucose tolerance. In addition, GP alleviated HFD/HF-induced histopathological abnormalities in rat liver and intestinal mucosa.

conclusionsGP attenuates hepatic steatosis and intestinal barrier injury in MAFLD rats via the AMPK and TLR4/nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) pathways, providing a potential treatment for MAFLD patients.
