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

Chitooligosaccharide is beneficial for inhibiting dyslipidemia and reducing atherosclerotic and hyperlipidemic risk. The purpose of this study was to investigate the cholesterol-regulating effects and potential mechanisms of Chitooligosaccharide tablets (CFTs) in high-fat diet-induced hyperlipidemic rats. The results revealed that CFTs can regulate serum lipid levels in hyperlipidemic rats in a dosage-dependent manner. Synchronously, gene expressions related to cholesterol excretion were upregulated in a dosage-dependent manner, including cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase (CYP7A1), liver X receptor α (LXRA), peroxisome proliferation-activated receptor-α (PPARα) and low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR), whereas cholesterol synthetic gene expressions including 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase (HMGCR) and sterol-responsive element binding protein-2 (SREBP2) were reduced. This work highlights that CFTs have potential as natural products to prevent and treat metabolic hyperlipidemia syndrome, probably due to the reduction of cholesterol biosynthesis and through cholesterol elimination; they also improve the pathological changes of liver tissue in rats, alleviate liver damage, maintain normal lipid metabolism in the liver, ameliorate hepatic glycolipid disorders and accelerate TC operation, and reduce blood lipid levels.
