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

Traditionally, velvet antler (VA) has been used as a medicine or dietary supplement in East Asia. It contains biologically active compounds that exert anti-inflammatory, anti-fatigue, anti-aging, and anticancer effects. Although demand for VA has increased globally, its supply and consumption are limited due to the low recovery of its bioactive compounds from traditional decoctions. Therefore, alternative extraction methods are required to enrich the active compounds and enhance their biological efficacy. The extract has been reported to protect against neuropathological conditions in brain cells and suppress oxidative stress and neuroinflammation-crucial for the initiation or progression of neurodegenerative diseases. Therefore, VA is a potential therapeutic agent for neurodegenerative diseases. However, the beneficial effects of VA on astrocytes, which are the predominant glial cells in the brain, remain unclear. In the present study, we investigated the protective effects of enzymatically digested VA extract (YC-1101) on the mitochondria in astrocytes, which are essential organelles regulating oxidative stress. Proteomic and metabolomic results using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) identified enriched bioactive ingredients in YC-1101 compared to hot water extract of VA. YC-1101 displayed significant protective effects against mitochondrial stressors in astrocytes compared with other health functional ingredients. Altogether, our results showed improved bioactive efficacy of YC-1101 and its protective role against mitochondrial stressors in astrocytes.
