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

This study for the first time examined the prophylactic role of Tungrymbai, a well-known fermented soybean food of North-East India, against hepatic steatosis. Treatment with hexane-isopropanolic (2:1, HIET) but not hydro-alcoholic (70% ethanol, HAET) extract dose-dependently (0.1, 0.2, or 0.3 µg/mL) reduced the intracellular lipid accumulation as shown by lower triglyceride levels and both Oil Red O and Nile Red staining in palmitate (PA, 0.75 mM)-treated hepatocytes. Immunobloting, mRNA expression, and knock-down studies demonstrated the role of AMPK-mediated SREBP/FAS/ACC/HMGCR and PPARα/CPT1A/UCP2 signaling pathways in facilitating the beneficial role of HIET against lipid accumulation in PA-treated hepatocytes. Animal studies further showed a positive effect of HIET (20 µg/kg BW, 8 weeks, daily) in regulating AMPK/SREBP/PPARα signaling pathways and reducing body weight gain, plasma lipid levels, and hepatic steatosis in high fat diet (HFD)-fed mice. Histological analyses also revealed the beneficial effect of HIET in reducing hepatic fat accumulation in HFD mice. Chemical profiling (HRMS, IR, and HPLC) demonstrated the presence of menaquinone-7 (vitamin K2) as one of the bio-active principle(s) in HIET. Combining all, this study demonstrates the positive effect of HIET on reducing hepatic steatosis via regulating AMPK/SREBP/PPARα signaling pathway.
