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.
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
Background and Aims: Cirrhotic cardiomyopathy (CCM) is a significant complication of cirrhosis, but its progression and underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood. This study aimed to investigate dynamic changes in cardiac function, pathology, inflammation, and mitochondrial damage in a mouse model of CCM, and to compare echocardiographic characteristics in patients with cirrhosis. Methods: Bile duct ligation was performed in male C57BL/6J mice to induce cirrhosis. Longitudinal analyses were conducted over eight weeks. Cardiac function was assessed using serum biomarkers, echocardiography, and electrocardiography. Pathology was examined with hematoxylin and eosin, Masson's trichrome, Sirius Red, and wheat germ agglutinin staining. Western blotting and immunohistochemistry were used to detect markers of inflammation, fibrosis, apoptosis, and mitochondrial function. Cardiac and liver function markers were also evaluated in patients with cirrhosis. Results: Mice subjected to bile duct ligation developed progressive cardiac dysfunction, including reduced cardiac output and diastolic dysfunction (end-diastolic interventricular septal thickness, left ventricular internal diameters, stroke volume, and left ventricular end-diastolic volume decreased, whereas ejection fraction and fractional shortening increased), as well as cardiac atrophy. Myocardial apoptosis, inflammation (elevated tumor necrosis factor, interleukin-6, and p65), and fibrosis worsened over time. Mitochondrial injury was characterized by reduced carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha, with increased hexokinase 2, pyruvate kinase M2, and lactate dehydrogenase A. In patients with cirrhosis, impaired cardiac function and elevated brain natriuretic peptide levels correlated with total bilirubin. Conclusions: The progression of CCM is closely associated with cirrhosis severity and appears to be driven by myocardial atrophy, apoptosis, inflammation, fibrosis, and mitochondrial dysfunction.
