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

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), the hepatic manifestation of the metabolic syndrome, is a global health problem. Currently, no pharmacological treatment is approved for NAFLD. Natural health products, including bioactive peptides, are potential candidates to aid in the management of metabolic syndrome-related conditions, including insulin resistance and obesity. In this study, we hypothesized that an egg-white-derived bioactive peptide QAMPFRVTEQE (Peptide 2) would improve systemic and local white adipose tissue insulin sensitivity, thereby preventing high-fat diet-induced exacerbation of pathological features associated with NAFLD, such as lipid droplet size and number, inflammation, and hepatocyte hypertrophy in high-fat diet-fed mice. Similar to rosiglitazone, Peptide 2 supplementation improved systemic insulin resistance during the hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp and enhanced insulin signalling in white adipose tissue, modulating ex vivo lipolysis. In the liver, compared with high-fat diet fed animals, Peptide 2 supplemented animals presented decreased hepatic cholesterol accumulation (
