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

Infectious and non-infectious liver diseases are marked by disrupted liver metabolism and are frequently accompanied by gut epithelial barrier dysfunction and microbial dysbiosis, reflecting the compromised gut-liver axis. Despite the pivotal role of the gut-liver axis in health, transformative therapeutic interventions that simultaneously target both the liver and gut remain underexplored. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα) suppression drives both gut and liver metabolic diseases. In this study, we report on the therapeutic impact of microbial metabolite, 10-hydroxystearic acid (10-HSA), on restoring lipid metabolism and liver regeneration through PPARα activation, leading to a functional gut-liver axis in an
