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

Cytochrome P-450 epoxygenase-derived epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) exert diverse biological activities, which include potent vasodilatory, anti-inflammatory, antiapoptotic, and antioxidatant effects, and cardiovascular protection. Liver has abundant epoxygenase expression and high levels of EET production; however, the roles of epoxygenases in liver diseases remain to be elucidated. In this study, we investigated the protection against high-fat diet-induced nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in mice with endothelial-specific CYP2J2 overexpression (Tie2-CYP2J2-Tr). After 24 wk of high-fat diet, Tie2-CYP2J2-Tr mice displayed attenuated NAFLD compared with controls. Tie2-CYP2J2-Tr mice showed significantly decreased plasma triglyceride levels and liver lipid accumulation, improved liver function, reduced inflammatory responses, and less increase in hepatic oxidative stress than wild-type control mice. These effects were associated with inhibition of NF-κB/JNK signaling pathway activation and enhancement of the antioxidant defense system in Tie2-CYP2J2-Tr mice in vivo. We also demonstrated that 14,15-EET treatment protected HepG2 cells against palmitic acid-induced inflammation and oxidative stress. 14,15-EET attenuated palmitic acid-induced changes in NF-κB/JNK signaling pathways, malondialdehyde generation, glutathione levels, reactive oxygen species production, and NADPH oxidase and antioxidant enzyme expression in HepG2 cells in vitro. Together, these results highlight a new role for CYP epoxygenase-derived EETs in lipotoxicity-related inflammation and oxidative stress and reveal a new molecular mechanism underlying EETs-mediated anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects that could aid in the design of new therapies for the prevention and treatment of NAFLD.
