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 dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) involves early disturbances such as excessive lipid accumulation, sterile inflammation, and hepatocellular stress. The results of recent studies have highlighted extracellular ATP and its metabolite adenosine (Ado) as damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) that drive inflammation, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, and steatosis, contributing to MASLD progression. Although vitamin E is clinically used for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, it remains unclear whether its therapeutic effects involve modulation of DAMP-associated signaling. To address this gap, we used transgenic zebrafish expressing a liver-specific G-protein-coupled receptor activation-based adenosine sensor (GRAB
