Effects of curcumin on artery blood gas index of rats with pulmonary fibrosis caused by paraquat poisoning and the expression of Smad 4, Smurf 2, interleukin-4 and interferon-γ.

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.
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
Effects of curcumin on artery blood gas index of rats with pulmonary fibrosis caused by paraquat poisoning and the expression of Mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 4 (Smad4), Smad ubiquitination regulatory factor 2 (Smurf2), interleukin-4 (IL-4) and interferon-γ (IFN-γ) were explored. A total of 54 Wistar rats were randomly selected, of which 36 rats were selected for paraquat poisoning pulmonary fibrosis modeling, and 18 were used in the control group for normal feeding. Then, 18 rats were randomly selected from the modeled groups and injected with curcumin and classified as the curcumin group. The remaining 18 rats were not processed and 17 were successfully modeled as the paraquat group. The expression of SMAD4, Smurf2, IL-4 and INF-γ was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Abdominal aortic blood was taken for determination of pH, arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO
