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

Sargassum horneri contains water-soluble polysaccharides, which have antihypertensive effects, and arsenic, which is harmful to the human body. Boiling and other treatments are effective in removing arsenic; however, water-soluble polysaccharides are lost during processing. Therefore, a method to remove arsenic and further increase its antihypertensive effect is required. To this end, we investigated fermentation with Lactiplantibacillus pentosus SN001 in this study. Boiled and fermented S. horneri were administered to spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), and blood pressure and arsenic accumulation in organs were observed to simultaneously examine the effects of fermentation on hypertension and arsenic accumulation. The ACE (angiotensin-converting enzyme) inhibition rate, an indicator of antihypertensive effects, showed a maximum at 4 days of fermentation. Consecutive dosing studies using S. horneri, boiled S. horneri, and fermented boiled S. horneri in SHR were conducted. Although the boiled group showed high blood pressure values, the fermented boiled group showed lower blood pressure values than the boiled cohort. The amount of arsenic accumulated in the liver, kidney, and spleen of rats was significantly lower in the boiled and fermented boiled groups than that in the S. horneri group. This confirmed the arsenic removal effect of boiling pretreatment and the in vivo safety of fermented boiled S. horneri. These results suggest that fermentation of arsenic-free S. horneri with L. pentosus SN001 can enhance its antihypertensive effect in vivo. This is the first study to simultaneously examine the antihypertensive effect of fermentation of S. horneri and its effect on the arsenic accumulation in vivo.
