Discovery of the protective effect of glutamine on acute alcoholic liver injury.
Article in Indian journal of pharmacology, 2026. 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
objectiveOur research aims to evaluate the important role of glutamine (Gln) in alcohol (ethanol)-induced liver damage. MATERIALS AND
methodsIn our study, the mice were simultaneously divided into normal group, alcohol group, and Gln+alcohol group. After different treatments, we detected alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and liver index. Then, some histopathological examination was used to observe the damage of liver tissue, glycogen, and liver cell apoptosis in mice. In addition, the expression of apoptosis-related proteins Bcl-2, Bax, Caspase3, heat stress protein 70 (HSP70), cytochrome cytochrome P450-2E1, NFκB pathway-related proteins IkB-a, NFκB-p65, and tumor necrosis factor-α were detected in different groups by western blotting. The experiment in vitro, we used normal hepatocytes L02, after treatment with alcohol and Gln for 24 h, carried out CCK-8 cell proliferation detection and western blotting to detect the expression of related proteins.
resultsOur results showed that, in serological testing, Gln can significantly reduce the levels of ALT, AST, and liver index in Gln+alcohol group; and in the histopathological examination, Gln can increase the glycogen content and decrease the apoptosis rate in Gln+alcohol group. In addition, the differential expression of IκBα, NFκB-p65, and other factors in Western blotting shows that the NFκB signaling pathway plays important role in acute alcoholic liver injury.
conclusionsOur results showed that Gln played an important protective role in alcohol-induced liver injury in mice by regulating glycogen stores, apoptosis, anti-oxidative stress and inhibiting NF-κB signaling pathways in liver cells.
