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

BACKGROUND AND

aimsThe augmenter of liver regeneration (ALR) protein is critical for lipid homeostasis and mitochondrial function. We investigated high-fat/high-carbohydrate (HF/HC) diet-induced nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in wild-type (WT), hepatocyte-specific ALR-knockout (ALR-H-KO), and ALR-heterozygous (ALR-H-HET) mice. ALR was measured in serum of human nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and NASH-induced cirrhosis (serum and liver). APPROACH AND

resultsHF/HC feeding decreased ALR expression in all groups of mice. The otherwise normal ALR-H-HET mice gained more weight and steatosis than WT mice when challenged metabolically with the HF/HC diet; ALR-H-KO mice gained the least weight and had the least steatosis. These findings were consistent with correspondingly increased triglycerides and cholesterol and altered expression of carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1a, sterol regulatory element-binding protein, acetyl coenzyme A carboxylase, and fatty acid synthase. All HF/HC-fed mice developed insulin resistance, the magnitude being lower in ALR-H-KO mice. HF/HC-fed ALR-H-HET mice were more resistant to glucose challenge than WT or ALR-H-KO mice. The frequency of tumor necrosis factor alpha-producing, interleukin 6 (IL6)-producing, and IL17-producing cells was greater in ALR-H-KO than ALR-H-HET and lowest in WT mice. HF/HC feeding did not increase their number in ALR-H-KO mice, and the increase in ALR-H-HET was greater than that in WT mice except for IL17 cells. Cluster of differentiation 25-positive (CD25

conclusionsHepatic ALR deficiency may be a critical predisposing factor for aggressive NAFLD progression.
