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

aimsNAD

methodsPharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic analyses were performed following a single 250 mg/kg intraperitoneal injection of NRH in healthy mice. In long-term studies, lean and high-fat diet-induced obese mice were treated with 250 mg/kg NRH thrice weekly for 7 weeks. Blood NAD

resultsNRH entered tissues unassisted and was rapidly metabolized for NAD

conclusionThis study establishes NRH as a promising therapeutic agent for obesity-induced metabolic dysfunction, correcting glucose intolerance and hyperlipidemia through ADK-dependent NAD
