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

backgroundNicotinamide riboside (NR) is a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD

methodsWe fed C57BL/6 J mice with Lieber-DeCarli ethanol liquid diet with or without 400 mg/kg·bw NR for 16 days. Liver injuries and SirT1-PGC-1α-mitochondrial function were analyzed. In in vitro experiments, HepG2 cells (CYP2E1 over-expressing cells) were incubated with ethanol ± 0.5 mmol/L NR. Lipid accumulation and mitochondrial function were compared. SirT1 knockdown in HepG2 cells were further applied to confirm the role of SirT1 in the protection of NR on lipid accumulation.

resultsWe found that ethanol significantly decreased the expression and activity of hepatic SirT1 and induced abnormal expression of enzymes of lipid metabolism in mice. Both in vivo and in vitro experiments showed that NR activated SirT1 through increasing NAD

conclusionsNR can protect against ethanol induced liver injuries via replenishing NAD
