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

Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonists are used along with ethanol consumption, but their interactions are not understood. Our aim was to determine the effects of GLP-1R agonism on the liver in mouse models of high ethanol consumption. We identified that GLP-1R agonism reduced ethanol consumption, mitigated ethanol-induced upregulation of several liver metabolizing enzymes, including Cyp2e1 and also reduced Cyp2e1 independent of ethanol intake. As expected from a reduction in Cyp2e1, GLP-1R agonism resulted in increased blood ethanol levels. This occurred after a single dose of ethanol when given by gavage, and by the intraperitoneal route. This suggests that GLP-1R agonism can reduce ethanol-mediated hepatotoxicity despite continued ethanol consumption and elevate blood alcohol levels.
