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

Objectives: To explore the mechanism underlying the effect of Fructus Akebiae (FAE) against hepatic fibrosis in mice through combined network pharmacology, liver metabolomics, and 16S rDNA analyses of the gut microbiota. Methods: In this study, we randomly divided mice into the control, model, FAE high-dose, FAE medium-dose, and FAE low-dose groups to analyze the pathological changes in the hepatic fibrosis and levels of the Results: FAE treatment markedly improved the pathological changes in the hepatic fibrosis. Analysis revealed that FAE administration reversed the carbon tetrachloride (CCl Conclusion: FAE may be a promising treatment for hepatic fibrosis, and its protective effects are associated with improvements in the microbiome and metabolic disorders.
