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

Oxidative stress plays a central role in the pathogenesis of liver diseases, including hepatotoxicity, by disrupting the balance between reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the hepatic antioxidant defense system. Excessive ROS production leads to inflammation, fibrosis, and cellular damage. Antioxidants-both endogenous and exogenous-can mitigate these effects by neutralizing ROS and restoring redox homeostasis. This review evaluates the mechanistic role of antioxidants in modulating key oxidative stress-related signaling pathways, such as nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), nuclear factorkappa B (NF-κB), phosphoinositide 3-kinase/Akt (PI3K/Akt), and Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK/STAT). Through the regulation of these pathways, antioxidants reduce apoptosis, suppress pro-inflammatory signaling, and enhance the expression of detoxifying enzymes. Natural compounds like flavonoids, polyphenols, and vitamins C and E have shown hepatoprotective effects, while synthetic antioxidants and their combinations with other therapeutic agents represent promising strategies for clinical application. This review underscores the therapeutic potential of antioxidants in combating oxidative stress-induced hepatotoxicity by offering a comprehensive overview of their mechanistic targets.
