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

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a prevalent medical condition with an ever-growing trend. Although multiple intracellular mechanisms are involved, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress has been demonstrated to play a significant role in the genesis and progression. Most of the research supports the advantages of exercise for NAFLD. However, little is known about the molecular mechanism(s) that underpin the effectiveness of exercise training in NAFLD. This study aimed to identify how aerobic exercise affected hepatic ER stress in a mouse NAFLD model. In this study, the mice were fed either a standard diet (SD) or a high-fat diet (HFD) for 17 weeks. HFD mice were trained on a treadmill during the last eight weeks. All animals were tested for serum levels of biochemical assays, protein expression, and gene expression. The hematoxylin and eosin, Oil red O, and immunohistochemistry staining were also performed. The results indicated that a high-fat diet generated NAFLD, with serum lipid disruption and hepatic function impairment, and increased GRP78 and ATF6 expressions. However, aerobic training reversed the majority of these alterations. It is concluded that NAFLD appears to be associated with hepatic ER stress response, and aerobic exercise mitigates NAFLD via lowering ER stress proteins GRP78 and ATF6.
