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

The mycotoxin aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), frequently identified in animal feed and raw materials, induces oxidative stress as a primary toxicological consequence. The coumarin compound 4-methylesculetin (4-ME) possesses notable antioxidant properties, leading to its application in medical contexts. Given that the liver is the principal organ targeted by AFB1, this study investigated the potential mechanism through which 4-ME mitigated hepatic injury induced by AFB1 in grass carp. The grass carp (initial body weight of 11.40 ± 0.01 g) were randomly divided into 4 treatment groups (3 replicates/treatment and 60 fish/replicate), which were control group (Control), 60 μg/kg AFB1 group (AFB1), 10 mg/kg 4-ME group (4-ME) and 60 μg/kg AFB1 + 10 mg/kg 4-ME group (AFB1 + 4-ME). The present study found that AFB1 caused liver injury, dietary 4-ME supplementation enhanced the antioxidant capacity through the Nrf2 pathway, decreased the levels of AFB1-DNA adducts (
