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

purposeTo examine the antiulcerative and antioxidant action of the Anacardium occidentale hydroalcoholic leaf extract (HEA) on experimentally induced colitis in rats via acetic acid (AA).

methodsMale rats were distributed into six groups (n = 10 per group): C (control), CC (colitis control), SZC (sulfasalazine 500 mg/kg), and three doses of HEA (HEA50 = 50 mg/kg, HEA100 = 100 mg/kg, HEA200 = 200 mg/kg).

resultsThe treatment with HEA100 for seven days decreased diarrhea, increased food intake, attenuated weight loss, and recovered the macroscopic and histological parameters of the colon, mitigating the severity of colitis and restoring the intestinal morphophysiology of animals with induced colitis. Additionally, HEA50 and HEA100 treatment increased the activity of superoxide dismutase, catalase, and thiol, and reduced the levels of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances and carbonyl, contributing to the re-establishment of antioxidant homeostasis.

conclusionThis study provided preclinical evidence of the potential of A. occidentale leaf extract, particularly at the concentration of 100 mg/kg, as an antiulcer agent for attenuating colitis in rats, likely due to the positive modulation of the antioxidant system.
