Minus charge stimulation prevents LPS-induced liver injury by reduction of nitric oxide.
Article in Journal of clinical biochemistry and nutrition, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
The liver is one of the major target organs affected in sepsis that are usually accompanied with free radical formation. The use of minus charge for the prevention and cure of various radical related diseases is gaining wide importance in the medicinal field. Here, we investigate whether minus charge stimulation (MCS) inhibits nitric oxide (NO) production induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in the mice liver. The survival rate was compared in LPS-treated group with MCS group. The liver NO radical was measured using electron spin resonance technique. Serum alanine transaminase (ALT) was estimated for liver injury. MCS significantly improved the survival rate of LPS-treated mice and inhibited increase of ALT in serum levels. MCS also reduced NO radical production significantly in the LPS-treated mice liver tissue. In conclusion, our results indicate that MCS prevents LPS-induced liver injury, which may be through the inhibition of liver NO radical production.
