Dihydromyricetin ameliorated nonalcoholic steatohepatitis in mice by regulating the composition of serous lipids, bile acids and ileal microflora.

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.
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
backgroundDihydromyricetin (DMY) is a natural flavonoid with anti-nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) activity. However, the effects of DMY on the composition of lipids and bile acids (BAs) in serum, and gut microbiota (GM) in ileum of mice with NASH are not clear.
methodsAfter male C57BL/6 mice was fed with methionine and choline deficiency (MCD) diet and simultaneously administered with DMY (300 mg/kg/day) by gavage for 8 weeks, the pathological changes of liver tissue were observed by Oil Red O, hematoxylin eosin and Masson staining, the levels of serum alaninea minotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase and liver triglyceride, malonic dialdehyde were detected by the detection kits, the composition and contents of serum lipids and BAs were detected by Liquid Chromatograph-Mass Spectrometry, the mRNA levels of hepatic BAs homeostasis-related genes were detected by RT-qPCR, and microbiological diversity in ileum was analyzed by 16S rDNA sequencing.
resultsThe results showed that the significant changes including 29 lipids, 4 BAs (23-nor-deoxycholic acid, ursodeoxycholic acid, 7-ketodeoxycholic acid and cholic acid), 2 BA transporters (Mrp2 and Oatp1b2) and 8 GMs between MCD and DMY groups. Among them, DMY treatment significantly down-regulated 21 lipids, 4 BAs mentioned above, the ratio of Firmicutes/Bacteroidota and the abundance of Erysipelotrichaceae, Faecalibacuium, significantly up-regulated 8 lipids and 5 GMs (Verrucomicrobiota, Bacteroidota, Actinobacteria, Akkermansiaceae and Akkermansia).
conclusionsThe results suggested that DMY may alleviate MCD diet-induced NASH through decreasing the serum levels of toxic BAs which regulated by liver Oatp1b2 and Mrp2, regulating the metabolism of related lipids, and up-regulating intestinal probiotics (Actinobacteria and Verrucomicrobiota at the phylum level; Akkermansiaceae at the family level; Akkermansiaat at the genus level) and inhibiting intestinal harmful bacteria (Firmicutes at the phylum level; Erysipelotrichaceae at the family level; Faecalibaculum at the genus level).
