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

Daucosterol is a phytosterol glycoside with hepatoprotective properties. The objective of the present study was to confirm the role of daucosterol in liver failure. Exosomes were isolated from primary mouse umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (UCMSCs). A liver failure mouse model was generated by injecting lipopolysaccharide/D-galactosamine. Mice were treated with exosomes alone or in combination with daucosterol (5, 10, or 20 mg/kg). Liver tissue damage was examined by hematoxylin-eosin, Masson's trichrome, and TUNEL staining. The levels of genes, proteins, and inflammatory factors were determined using real-time qPCR, western blotting, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, respectively. Compared with normal mice, we noted severe damage, fibrosis, and apoptosis in the liver tissues of liver failure-induced mice. UCMSC-derived exosomes effectively alleviated hepatic damage in the mouse model. Compared with exosome treatment alone, exosomes combined with daucosterol significantly and dose-dependently reduced pathological changes in model mice. Exosome treatment alone or combined with daucosterol also markedly decreased the liver index and reduced levels of alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, and IL-6 in model mice. Exosome treatment alone or combined with daucosterol suppressed mRNA expression levels of
