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

Metabolic-endotoxemia, characterized by the translocation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from Gram-negative bacteria into the bloodstream, is a key contributor to chronic low-grade inflammation associated with obesity and type 2 diabetes. This condition exacerbates metabolic disruptions by activating Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) on macrophages, leading to the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines and subsequent insulin resistance. Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA; C20:5 (n-3)), an omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid, has demonstrated anti-inflammatory and antioxidative properties, but its precise mechanisms of action in mitigating LPS-induced stress remain unclear. This study investigates the pathways through which C20:5 (n-3) alleviates LPS-induced oxidative stress and inflammation in macrophages. C20:5 (n-3) pretreatment significantly reduced LPS-induced inflammatory responses, decreasing IL-1β and IL-6 expression and IL-1β secretion, and lowering the percentage of HLA-DR
