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

Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are known to have beneficial effects. In particular, the consumption of omega-3 PUFAs has recently increased because of their effects on human health. Previous studies have investigated the activity of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA; C:18 omega-3) in metabolism and inflammation models. In a murine model of colitis, treatment with ALA effectively reduced inflammation. Previously, our research group identified the protective action of docosahexaenoic acid against gastric damage caused by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. The present study aimed to examine the impact of ALA in an indomethacin-induced gastric injury model and to determine its antioxidant activity in gastric tissue. Female Wistar rats were administered ALA over 10 days (20 mg/kg, orally). Two hours after the final ALA administration, the rats were given indomethacin (30 mg/kg, orally) to induce gastric injury. After 3 h, the rats were euthanized, and each stomach lesion was measured to determine the total damage. Stomach tissue samples were collected for the analysis of various antioxidant indicators. The results show ALA's gastroprotective effect following 10-day administration. ALA treatment significantly reduced gastric reactive oxygen species and malondialdehyde levels in the indomethacin-induced injury group. Moreover, ALA treatment decreased the levels of nitric oxide, myeloperoxidase, leukotriene B
