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

This study explored the regulatory role of nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) in aerobic exercise improving oxidative stress and inflammatory responses in mice with insulin resistance (IR) induced by a high-fat diet. We established an IR mouse model through a high-fat diet, then subjected the IR mice to aerobic exercise, intraperitoneal injection of luteolin, or a combined intervention. After 6 weeks of intervention, we measured serum lipid and glucose profiles; evaluated skeletal muscle morphology by H&E staining; quantified mRNA expression levels of Nrf2 and its downstream targets in the skeletal muscle by RT-qPCR; and determined protein abundance, localization, and expression patterns of Nrf2 and NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome by Western blotting and immunohistochemistry, respectively. In the skeletal muscle of IR mice, Nrf2 and its downstream targets were significantly down-regulated, whereas NLRP3 inflammasome was markedly up-regulated (
