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
Metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disease worldwide, characterized by excess lipid deposition. Insulin resistance (IR) serves as a fundamental pathogenic factor in MAFLD. However, currently, there are no approved specific agents for its treatment. Farrerol, a novel compound with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, has garnered significant attention in recent years due to its hepatoprotective properties. Despite this, the precise underlying mechanisms of action remain unclear. In this study, a network pharmacology approach predicted protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 1 (PTPN1) as a potential target for farrerol's action in the liver. Subsequently, the administration of farrerol improved insulin sensitivity and glucose tolerance in MAFLD mice. Furthermore, farrerol alleviated lipid accumulation by binding to PTPN1 and reducing the dephosphorylation of the insulin receptor (INSR) in HepG2 cells and MAFLD mice. Thus, the phosphoinositide 3-kinase/serine/threonine-protein kinases (PI3K/AKT) signalling pathway was active, leading to downstream protein reduction. Overall, the study demonstrates that farrerol alleviates insulin resistance and hepatic steatosis of MAFLD by targeting PTPN1.
