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

Fatty liver hemorrhagic syndrome (FLHS) is a nutrition-related metabolic disorder in laying hens characterized by excessive hepatic lipid accumulation and hemorrhagic lesions, leading to reduced productivity and increased mortality. However, the regulatory mechanisms linking mitochondrial dysfunction to hepatic lipid metabolism remain unclear. This study investigated the role of SIRT3 in modulating mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation during FLHS progression. An in vivo FLHS model was established by feeding laying hens with a high-energy, low-protein (HELP) diet, and an in vitro hepatic steatosis model was induced by free fatty acid (FFA) treatment in primary hepatocytes. Both models exhibited pronounced lipid accumulation in hepatic cells and altered hepatocellular injury-related parameters, which were associated with mitochondrial dysfunction and impaired fatty acid oxidation. Mechanistically, hepatic tissues and hepatocytes showed suppression of the SIRT3-AMPKα-PGC-1α signaling cascade, accompanied by reduced expression of mitochondrial biogenesis markers (NRF1, TFAM), impaired respiratory chain components (NDUFA9, SDHA, UQCRC1, COX4I1, ATP5B), and decreased transcription of fatty acid oxidation-related genes (PPARα, ACOX1, CPT1A, CPT2, ACADL, ACADM). Pharmacological activation of SIRT3 with AR-C17 restored AMPKα-PGC-1α signaling, enhanced mitochondrial biogenesis and respiratory function, and promoted fatty acid oxidation, thereby alleviating lipid accumulation in hepatocytes in both models. Collectively, these results demonstrate that SIRT3 is a key metabolic regulator maintaining mitochondrial oxidative function and lipid homeostasis in laying hens. Targeted activation of SIRT3 may provide a novel nutritional strategy for preventing or ameliorating FLHS and related metabolic disturbances in poultry production.
