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

Liver fibrosis is a characteristic pathological feature of various chronic liver diseases, which is almost irreversible and intractable. Although many natural components have been shown to have therapeutic effects on liver fibrosis, no studies have examined the effects of Vitisin A on liver fibrosis and the molecular mechanisms involved. In our study, we demonstrated that Vitisin A inhibits liver fibrosis in a concentration- dependent and time-dependent manner. We found that Vitisin A inhibits the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway while inhibiting cuproptosis. We activated cuproptosis and inhibited Nrf2 expression separately, and found the inhibition of hepatic fibrosis by Vitisin A was blocked. The inhibitory effect of Vitisin A on mice model of liver fibrosis was also observed. Interestingly, Vitisin A significantly restored cell viability in liver injury cell model. In conclusion, this study suggests that Vitisin A is a promising therapeutic drug for the treatment of liver fibrosis.
