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

objectivesMATERIALS AND

methodsRats were divided into four experimental groups: Control, Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)/D-Galactosamine (D-GalN) (L/D), Wu Ling Powder + L/D (WLP+L/D) and CF + L/D. Animals were gavage for 7 days, after which all animals except the control group were injected intraperitoneally with LPS and D-GalN to induce acute liver failure. Subsequently, the urine was collected for the next 8 hr, and the liver pathological changes were observed. The levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), inflammatory factor and oxidative stress-related indicators were measured. The levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), apoptosis marker in the liver, water content and aquaporin (AQPs) in the brain were detected. The concentration of ions and osmolality of urine and serum were determined.

resultsThe results show that CF significantly improved the damage of liver and brain tissue, and reversed the changes of serum ALT, AST, inflammatory factor and Cl-. It modulated oxidative stress-related indicators, reduced the content of ROS, apoptosis markers, water content, the level of Cl- ions and osmolality in the urine and the expression of AQP1, and AQP4 in the brain, and increased the urine output.

conclusionIt was found that the CF extract could alleviate the L/D induced acute liver failure by regulating the hepatocyte apoptosis and AQPs expression in the brain.
