Transcriptomic Changes Underlying the Anti-Steatotic Effects of DHA Supplementation in Aged Obese Female Mice.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
The prevalence of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) increases with age and obesity. The aim of this study was to characterize the transcriptomic changes in liver underlying the beneficial effects of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) supplementation on MASLD progression in aged obese female mice. Two-month-old C57BL/6J female mice were fed ad libitum with high fat saturated diet (HFD, 45%) for 4 months. These diet-induced obese (DIO) mice were divided into two groups: the DIO group that continued with HFD and the DIO + DHA mice fed up to 18 months with the HFD containing a DHA-rich concentrate. High quality RNA from liver was used to perform RNA sequencing analysis. Further functional and clustering analyses of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in liver between treatments revealed that DHA regulated processes related to lipid metabolic processes. DHA treatment also affects the PPAR signaling pathway and the regulation of inflammatory response. These data suggest that long-term DHA supplementation ameliorates MASLD progression in aged obese female mice by promoting transcriptomic changes in genes related to lipid metabolism and inflammatory response.
