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

The metabolic syndrome, often accompanied by hepatic manifestations, is a high-risk factor for developing cardiovascular disease. Patients with metabolic dysfunction associated with steatohepatic disease (MASDL) are at significant risk of developing coronary artery disease. Atherosclerosis is a systemic inflammatory disorder in which several factors, including dietary or infectious factors, can cause an inflammatory response. Helicobacter pylori (HP) bacteria have been implicated in the progression of proatherogenic vascular endothelial lesions, moreover, our previous study in an experimental in vivo model of Cavia porcellus showed that HP components and high-fat substances acted synergistically in promoting vascular endothelial inflammation, leading to an early onset of a proatherogenic environment. In the present study, our goal was to determine the contribution of HP components to the development of hepatic manifestations of metabolic syndrome in an experimental model. Our results showed that HP infection in animals exposed to a high-fat diet increased oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation, followed by endothelial lipid deposition, impaired endothelial apoptosis, cell lysis, and increased vascular stiffness. Finally, histopathological analysis of liver tissue showed signs of MASLD development in HP-infected animals fed a high-fat diet.
