AgNPs Aggravated Hepatic Steatosis, Inflammation, Oxidative Stress, and Epigenetic Changes in Mice With NAFLD Induced by HFD.

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
The recent development of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) has sparked increased interest in biomedical and pharmaceutical applications, leading to the possibility of human exposure. The liver is the primary target organ in the metabolism and transport of nanoparticles. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common and leading cause of hepatic metabolic syndrome with approximately 15% of patients will develop into non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, fibrosis, cirrhosis, and eventually hepatocellular carcinoma. Thus, the potential hepatotoxicity of AgNPs on NAFLD development and progression should be of great concern. Herein, we explored the potential hepatic effect of a single intravenously injected dose of 0.5, 2.5, and 12.5 mg/kg BW on the liver function of high-fat-diet (HFD)-fed mice for 7 days. AgNP treatment increased serum levels of alanine aminotransferase, aspartate transaminase, triglycerides and cholesterols, the number of lipid droplets, and the contents of triglycerides and cholesterols in NAFLD mice livers compared to HFD-fed mice. The mechanism of AgNP-induced worsen hepatotoxicity in mice is associated with hyperactivation of SREBP-1c-mediated
