Graded doses of grape seed methanol extract attenuated hepato-toxicity following chronic carbamazepine treatment in male Wistar rats.

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
aimThis study investigated the effects of co-administration of carbamazepine (CBZ) with grape (
methodThirty-five male rats (145-155 g) were randomized into 5 groups (n = 7) and administered with propylene glycol (PG 0.1 mL/day), CBZ (25 mg/kg), CBZ (25 mg/kg) + GSME (200 mg/kg), CBZ (25 mg/kg) + GSME (100 mg/kg), or CBZ (25 mg/kg) + GSME (50 mg/kg) orally for 28 days. Twenty-four hours after the last dose, changes in the body weights were determined. The rats were euthanized by cervical dislocation. The liver was weighed and later homogenized; while the supernatant was analyzed biochemically. The liver tissues were preserved in 10 % neutral-buffered formalin for the histomorphological investigation.
resultThere was significant (p = 0.0001) decrease in the body weight following carbamazepine treatment. The relative liver weight also decreased significantly (p = 0.0004) across the treatment group compared with control. The activities of the liver enzymes (aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, and glutathione activities), including the concentrations of malondialdehyde, increased significantly (p ≤ 0.0004) following carbamazepine treatment. Various morphological alterations were observed, especially in the photomicrograph of the CBZ treated rats. However, these derangements were attenuated significantly in the CBZ - GSME co-treated group.
conclusionThis study concludes that GSME treatment may serve as a potential therapeutic agent in carbamazepine-induced hepatotoxicity/ dysfunction.
