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) is the most common liver disease and is characterized by excessive lipid accumulation in hepatocytes. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and inflammation play important roles in hepatic lipid accumulation. Although CILP2 has been implicated in lipid metabolism, its role in MASLD remains unclear. Hepatic steatosis was induced in mice by a high-fat diet in this study. CILP2 was overexpressed in mouse livers and in vitro hepatocytes using the Ad-CILP2 adenovirus. CILP2 KO mice were also used in the experiments. Liver tissues and hepatocytes were collected for further analysis. CILP2 expression was upregulated in steatotic liver tissue and hepatocytes. CILP2 overexpression upregulated genes related to fatty acid synthesis (
