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

Fenofibrate, as a lipid-lowering drug, has been reported to have a protective effect on the retina independent with plasma lipid levels. This study aimed to investigate that the ameliorative effects of fenofibrate on systemic and retinal inflammation, as well as gut microbiota dysbiosis in high-fat diet (HFD)-induced mice. C57BL/6J mice were randomly allocated into four groups: standard diet (SD) group; HFD group; SD plus fenofibrate (SD_ Fe) group; HFD plus fenofibrate (HFD_ Fe) group. After successfully establishing models (5 months), indicators associated with lipid, gut barrier, inflammation and gut microbiota were investigated. Our results showed that supplementing the HFD with fenofibrate decreased body weight gain, alleviated dyslipidemia and reversed the downregulation of short-chain fatty acid (SCFAs) in serum, retina and feces. Fenofibrate ameliorated intestinal barrier function damage in HFD-induced mice. Fenofibrate coadministration inhibited the levels of inflammatory factor and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in the serum and attenuated inflammatory response in the retina of HFD-induced mice. Systemic LPS was positively correlated with a series of inflammatory factors in serum and retina, respectively. Fenofibrate supplementation down-regulated the abundances of LPS-associated bacteria in HFD mice, including
