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

Mangiferin (MF), a natural component widely found in fruits, vegetables, and herbs, has garnered increasing attention for its potent antioxidative properties and therapeutic potential. This bioactive xanthone compound plays a crucial role in mitigating oxidative stress, which is a key factor in the pathogenesis of various diseases, including liver diseases. As a powerful natural antioxidant, MF exhibits a wide range of hepatoprotective effects, making it a promising candidate for liver disease therapy. In this review, we systematically examine the source and chemical properties, synthetic pathways, pharmacokinetic characteristics, and bioavailability enhancement strategies of MF. Furthermore, we explore its mechanisms of action in treating liver diseases, with a focus on its antioxidative properties and their role in modulating liver disease progression. Given the growing burden of liver disease and the limitations of current therapies, this review aims to promote the clinical application of MF as a therapeutic candidate, paving the way for innovative therapeutic strategies for liver diseases.
