Empagliflozin Alleviates Hepatic Steatosis and Oxidative Stress via the NRF1 Pathway in High-Fat Diet-Induced Mouse Model of Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease.

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
Empagliflozin (EMPA)-a sodium-glucose cotransporter type 2 inhibitor-reduces endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, oxidative stress, and inflammation during metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) progression. However, the direct effects of EMPA on hepatic lipid metabolism and oxidative stress are unclear. Through the current study, we seek to explore the effects of EMPA on oxidative stress and related mechanisms in MASLD. To this end, MASLD was induced in C57BL/6J mice using a high-fat diet (HFD); nuclear respiratory factor 1 (NRF1) was downregulated via viral transduction (AAV8-shNrf1). Glucose homeostasis and liver histology were assessed, and oxidative stress and inflammation were measured. HFD-fed mice-derived liver tissue samples exhibited more lipid droplets, higher triglyceride levels, and elevated oxidative and ER stress than chow diet (CD)-fed mice. EMPA attenuated HFD-induced liver oxidative and ER stress. Additionally, the HFD significantly decreased NRF1 and Sirtuin (SIRT)7 expression compared with CD, which was rescued by EMPA treatment. However, these results did not affect insulin resistance or lipid synthesis-related changes upon EMPA treatment in the
