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

2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) is a widely used herbicide, yet its potential to induce hepatorenal injury via oxidative stress and apoptosis raises significant health concerns. Lycium barbarum polysaccharides (LBP) possess recognized antioxidant and anti-apoptotic properties, but their protective mechanisms against 2,4-D toxicity, particularly through a multi-target network, remain inadequately explored. This study aimed to systematically investigate the mechanisms of 2,4-D-induced hepatorenal injury and the protective efficacy of LBP by integrating network toxicology, molecular docking, and experimental validation. An integrated approach was employed. Core targets and pathways were identified via network toxicology. Molecular docking predicted interactions between 2,4-D and these targets. In vivo validation was conducted on Sprague-Dawley rats treated with 2,4-D (75 mg/kg) and/or LBP (50 mg/kg) for 28 days, assessing histopathology, serum oxidative stress markers superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), malondialdehyde (MDA) and cellular apoptosis (TUNEL staining).
