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

purposeCurrently, there are no effective therapies for liver fibrosis; hence, the development of anti-liver fibrosis agents is urgently needed. Here, we attempted to investigate the therapeutic effect and mechanism of asiatic acid (AA) on liver fibrosis, mainly focusing on the impact of AA on nuclear erythroid 2-related factor 2/antioxidant response element (Nrf2/ARE), nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB)/IκBα, and JAK1/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) signaling pathways.

methodsRats were induced liver fibrosis by carbon tetrachloride (CCl

resultsOur results showed that AA treatment dramatically ameliorated CCl

conclusionThese results demonstrate that AA ameliorates CCl
