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

objectiveTo verify whether ginsenoside Rg1 alleviates liver hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) in mice by upregulating the expression of Yes-associated protein (YAP) through estrogen receptor alpha pathway.

methodsThe whole hepatic IRI model and the local (70%) hepatic IRI model were established, respectively. The whole hepatic IRI model was used to observe the survival curve of mice, and the mouse models with 70% hepatic IRI were used to explore the mechanism of liver injury about Rg1 in hepatic IRI. Wild-type C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into some groups: (1) the whole hepatic IRI model group: the survival rate of mice was observed at 0, 30, 60, 90, and 120 min after ischemia and Rg1 intervention (90 min after ischemia), with 10 mice in each group, and (2) the 70% hepatic IRI model group: sham operation group, I/R model group, verteporfin (VP) group, doxycycline (Doxy) group, 17

resultsThe whole hepatic IRI model showed that the survival rate of mice decreased with the prolongation of ischemia time. IRI model mice showed mitochondrial damage, JC-1 red/green fluorescence value and ATP significantly decreased, and ROS production increased; in comparison, in the Doxy and E2 intervention group, JC-1 red/green fluorescence value and ATP production increased and ROS downregulated, indicating that mitochondrial function returned to normal. The level of serum ALT showed that the liver enzyme increased with the time of reperfusion and decreased gradually after 6 hours. The results of Western blot and PCR showed that the expression of YAP and ER

conclusionGinsenoside Rg1 exerts an estrogenic effect by activating ER
