Alnustone Ameliorates Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease by Facilitating Mitochondrial Fatty Acid β-Oxidation via Targeting Calmodulin.

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
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), including its more severe manifestation metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), poses global public health threats with limited therapeutics. Here, the role of alnustone is explored, a natural compound derived from the traditional Chinese herb Alpinia katsumadai Hayata, in the treatment of MASLD and MASH. It is shown that alnustone administration potently reduces serum triacylglycerol levels, reverses liver steatosis, and alleviates insulin resistance in both male and female MASLD mice. It also effectively ameliorates established fibrosis in MASH mice without any side effects. Mechanistically, hepatic lipidome profiling and energy metabolic assays reveal that alnustone facilitates mitochondrial fatty acid β-oxidation. Employing limited proteolysis-mass spectrometry (LiP-SMap) and further validation, calmodulin is identified as a direct molecular target of alnustone. Alnustone interacts with the Ca
