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

backgroundAcute liver failure (ALF) patients are often accompanied by severe energy metabolism abnormalities and intestinal microecological imbalance. The intestinal mucosal barrier is severely damaged. Intestinal endotoxin can induce intestinal endotoxemia through the "Gut-Liver axis". More and more evidence shows that members of the gut microbiota, especially Fusobacterium nucleatum (F. nucleatum), are related to inflammatory bowel disease, but whether F. nucleatum is involved in the development of ALF and whether it affects the liver energy metabolism is unclear.

methodsThis study first detected the abundance of F. nucleatum and its effect on ALF disease, and explored whether F. nucleatum aggravated liver inflammation in vitro and in vivo.

resultsOur data showed that liver tissues of ALF patients contained different abundances of F. nucleatum, which were related to the degree of liver inflammation. In addition, we found that F. nucleatum infection affected the energy metabolism of the liver during the development of ALF, inhibited the synthesis pathway of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD

conclusionsFusobacterium nucleatum coordinates a molecular network including NAD
