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

Background: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is characterized by excessive hepatic fat accumulation and is closely associated with obesity, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia. Objectives: This study explores the effects of pachymaran on NAFLD induced by a high-fat diet (HFD) in a murine model. Methods: Thirty male C57BL/6 mice were allocated into five groups: normal diet (ND), NAFLD, and high-, medium-, and low-dose pachymaran (200, 100, and 50 mg/kg, respectively). All groups except the ND were fed a HFD to induce NAFLD. The pachymaran groups received daily intragastric pachymaran for eight weeks. Post-treatment, liver weight were recorded, serum indices assessed, and hepatic pathology evaluated via histological and Oil Red O staining. Adenylate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) gene expression was analyzed through western blotting. Results: The body weight and liver gain (87.8 and 23.0%) in the high-dose pachymaran group were significantly less than those (154.2 and 82.0%) in the NAFLD group ( Conclusions: Pachymaran effectively mitigated fat accumulation, hepatocyte degeneration, and injury in mice with diet-induced NAFLD, likely through modulation of the AMPK pathway.
