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/

aimOridonin (Ori) is a diterpenoid naturally present in medicinal plants with a potential as an antioxidant agent. This study aimed to evaluate the hepatic anti-oxidative, anti-glycative and anti-inflammatory properties of Ori at 0.125 and 0.25% against chronic ethanol intake in mice. MATERIALS AND

methodsMice were divided into five groups: i) normal diet group, ii) Ori group, iii) ethanol diet (Lieber-DeCarli liquid diet with ethanol) group, iv) ethanol diet plus 0.125% Ori and v) ethanol diet plus 0.25% Ori. After 8 weeks of Ori supplementation, blood and liver tissue were used for analyses.

resultsEthanol increased the production of reactive oxygen species and nitric oxide, decreased glutathione content, and lowered the activity of glutathione peroxide, glutathione reductase and catalase. Ethanol suppressed the hepatic mRNA expression of nuclear factor E2-related factor 2. Ori supplements reversed these changes. Ethanol increased hepatic N

conclusionsThese novel findings suggest that Ori could be used as a potent agent against alcohol-induced hepatotoxicity.
