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

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory disease with an increasing prevalence worldwide. Naringenin (NAR) has been proven effective in preventing UC, but its mechanism has not been fully elucidated. In this study, network pharmacology and bioinformatics methods are used to screen the genes associated with NAR and UC. A mouse model of dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced UC is established. After treatment with NAR, the disease activity index (DAI) is scored, and colonic histopathology is observed via hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. The expressions of the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) signaling pathway and inflammation-related factors in the colons of UC mice are examined via western blot analysis and immunohistochemistry (IHC). The results of the animal experiments reveal that the model group of UC mice present the most severe weight loss and the highest DAI scores. After the administration of NAR, weight loss is alleviated, and DAI scores are reduced (
