MicroRNA-137-3p Improves Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease through Activating AMPK
Article in Analytical cellular pathology (Amsterdam), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is one of the most common chronic liver diseases worldwide and can develop to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis and later hepatic cirrhosis with a high prevalence to hepatocellular carcinoma. Oxidative stress and chronic hepatic inflammation are implicated in the pathogenesis of NAFLD. MicroRNA-137-3p (miR-137-3p) are associated with oxidative stress and inflammation; however, its role and mechanism in NAFLD remain unclear. Mice were fed with a high-fat diet (HFD) for 24 weeks to establish the NAFLD model. To overexpress or suppress hepatic miR-137-3p expression, mice were intraperitoneally injected with the agomir, antagomir, or respective controls of miR-137-3p at a dose of 100 mg/kg weekly for 6 consecutive weeks before the mice were sacrificed. To validate the involvement of AMP-activated protein kinase alpha (AMPK
