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

BACKGROUND/

aimAcute liver injury is the hallmark of organ failure in sepsis. Enteral nutrition (EN) is an important clinical therapeutic measure in septic patients. However, the therapeutic effect of EN alone is not obvious. Here, we investigated whether octanoic acid (OA)-rich EN alleviated acute liver injury through PPARγ/STAT-1/MyD88 pathway in endotoxemic rats. MATERIALS AND

methodsFirst, rats were randomly divided into four groups: Sham, Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), LPS+EN and LPS+EN+OA groups to investigate the effect of OA-rich EN on LPS-induced acute liver injury in endotoxemic rats. Then rats were randomly divided into five groups: Sham, LPS, LPS+EN+OA, LPS+EN+OA+SR202 (SR) and LPS+ pioglitazone (PI) groups to examine whether OA-rich EN alleviated acute liver injury through the PPARγ/STAT-1/MyD88 pathway. Rats received nutrition support via a gastric tube for 3 days. We evaluated the liver histology, apoptosis, liver enzymes and inflammatory cytokine levels in the liver and serum. PPARγ/STAT-1/MyD88 pathway was also measured.

resultsOA-rich EN inhibited the phosphorylation of STAT-1 and the activity of MyD88 by activating PPARγ and alleviating LPS-induced acute liver injury more effectively than EN alone in endotoxemic rats. The use of SR counteracted the effect of OA-rich EN on acute liver injury. Meanwhile, PI showed effects similar to OA-rich EN in endotoxemic rats.

conclusionOA-rich EN alleviated acute liver injury through PPARγ/STAT-1/MyD88 pathway in endotoxemic rats.
