Boron-dipyrromethene Staining May Enhance Fat Detection in the MASLD Zebrafish Model: NGS-validated lncRNA Profiling.
Article in In vivo (Athens, Greece). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
BACKGROUND/
aimMetabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a serious global public health concern. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been identified as key contributors to MASLD pathogenesis. Zebrafish can be utilized to study the relationship between MASLD and lncRNAs because of their similarity to human genes. Oil Red O staining is a traditional method for confirming liver fatty changes; however, it has several limitations. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY) in detecting fatty changes in the liver. MATERIALS AND
methodsLiver tissues were collected from 30 zebrafish that were fed a BODIPY-containing high-cholesterol diet. Oil Red O and BODIPY staining were evaluated by two pathologists, and next-generation sequencing (NGS) was performed using liver tissues categorized into high fatty change (six liver tissues) and low fatty change (six liver tissues) groups.
resultsBODIPY and Oil Red O staining of zebrafish liver sections correlated significantly (
conclusionBODIPY staining is a reliable alternative to Oil Red O staining for assessing fatty changes in MASLD zebrafish models, particularly when examining frozen liver sections.
