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

Objective: Previous studies have shown that oxymatrine (OMT) can improve high-fat-high-fructose-diet-induced non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and our study aimed to explore its possible metabolic potential mechanisms. Methods: Wistar rats were fed a high-fat-high-fructose diet for 8 weeks and treated with oxymatrine by gavage for the last 4 weeks. We measured biochemical indicators and pathological changes in each group and used liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) to analyze changes in metabolites in the serum and liver of the rats. Results: The results showed that OMT can alleviate the high-fat-high-fructose-induced weight gain and hepatic lipid deposition in rats. Metabolomic analysis showed that the level of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) was downregulated and levels of desmosterol and d-galactose were upregulated in livers fed with HFDHFr. The levels of L-isoleucine, L-valine, arachidonic acid (AA), taurocholic acid (TCA), chenodeoxycholyltaurine (TDCA), isocitrate, and glutathione (GSH) were downregulated in the liver, whereas those of linoleic acid (LA), phosphocholine (PC), glycerophosphocholine (GPC), and oxidized glutathione (GSSG) were upregulated in the serum treated with OMT. Conclusion: In summary, OMT can improve HFDHFr-induced NAFLD, and metabolomic analysis can provide an early warning for the development of NAFLD as well as provide a rationale for therapeutic targets.
