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
Transportation, an unavoidable process in livestock farming, causes metabolic disorders in the body, which then lead to endocrine disruption, being immunocompromised, and growth suppression. Lipid metabolism dysregulation is a critical phenotype induced by transportation. The liver is a vital organ in lipid metabolism, with a role in both lipid synthesis and lipolysis. However, the specific mechanisms by which transportation affects hepatic lipid metabolism remain unclear. This study employed rats as a model to investigate the effects of transportation on hepatic lipid metabolism. Rats subjected to transportation showed altered serum lipid profiles, including decreased serum triglyceride (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (VLDL-C), and non-esterified fatty acid (NEFA) immediately after transportation (IAT) and serum total cholesterol (TC) on day 3, and increasing serum TG, TC, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) on day 10. Meanwhile, fatty droplets in the liver were also reduced at IAT and increased on days 3 and 10. Notably, transportation also affected hepatic-lipid-metabolism-related enzyme activities and signaling pathways, such as increased AMP-activated protein kinase alpha (AMPKα) phosphorylation and modulations in key proteins and genes related to lipid metabolism, decreased hepatic acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) and fatty acid synthase (FAS) activities at IAT, and increased carnitine palmitoyl transferase 1 alpha (CPT-1α) at IAT and ACC and CPT-1α activities on days 3 and 10. Supplementation with alkaline mineral complex water (AMC) before and after transportation mitigated the adverse effects on hepatic lipid metabolism by modulating the AMPKα-SREBP-1c/PPARα pathway, enhancing lipid synthesis, and reducing the oxidative catabolism of fatty acids. AMC inhibited the transportation-induced activation of AMPKα and restored the balance of lipid-metabolism-related enzymes and pathways. These findings highlight AMC's potential as a therapeutic intervention to alleviate transportation-induced lipid metabolism disorders, offering significant implications for improving animal welfare and reducing economic losses in livestock farming.
