Luzindole attenuates LPS/d-galactosamine-induced acute hepatitis in mice.
Article in Innate immunity, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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
Melatonin is a well-documented hormone that plays central roles in the regulation of sleep-wake cycles. There is cumulative evidence to suggest that melatonin is also a pleiotropic regulator of inflammation, and luzindole has been widely used as a melatonin receptor antagonist. This study investigated the potential effects of luzindole on LPS/d-galactosamine (d-GalN)-induced acute hepatitis. The results indicated that treatment with luzindole alleviated histological damage in the liver, reduced the level of transaminases in plasma and improved the survival of LPS/d-GalN-exposed mice. Treatment with luzindole also suppressed the production of the pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IL-6 in LPS/d-GalN-exposed mice. In addition, treatment with luzindole inhibited the activation of caspase-3, -8 and -9, and suppressed the cleavage of caspase-3 and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase. Therefore, treatment with luzindole attenuates LPS/d-GalN-induced acute liver injury, suggesting that luzindole might have potential value for the intervention of inflammation-based hepatic disorders.
