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

Gastric mucosa is important to protect the gastric damage against external factors. We previously reported the gastro-protective effects of steamed and freeze-dried mature silkworm larval powder (SMSP) in ethanol-treated rats. However, the factors that promote mucosal formation still remain unclarified. In this study, we evaluated the effect of SMSP on the restoration and maintenance of gastric mucosal layer as well as anti-inflammatory response in ethanol-induced stomach injury in rats. A significant decrease of ulcer indexes, histopathological scores and pro-inflammatory cytokine levels was observed in SMSP-treated group. In addition, SMSP protected the mucosal layer from ethanol-induced gastric damage by increasing the expression of nitric oxide synthases and heat shock proteins, along with promoting genes related gastric mucosal protection and biosynthesis including mucin 5AC and trefoil factors. These results demonstrate that SMSP attenuates the pro-inflammatory responses and strengthens the gastric mucosal layer, thus exhibiting gastro-protective effect against ethanol-induced gastric injury in rats.
