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

Tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) disrupts bioenergetic homeostasis in skeletal muscle cells through the suppression of ion-dependent ATPase activities, mitochondrial depolarisation, and impairment of antioxidant defences. Carvacrol, a phenolic monoterpenoid constituent of thyme and oregano essential oil, has been shown to exert cytoprotective effects in TNF-α-challenged L6 rat myoblasts. The mechanistic basis of these effects, specifically the relationship between membrane-associated ATPase function, mitochondrial polarisation status, and transcriptional regulation of metabolic stress-response genes, has not been formally characterised. L6 rat myoblasts were exposed to TNF-α (10 ng/mL, 1 h), then treated with carvacrol (6.25 µg/mL, 24 h) in a post-inflammatory rescue paradigm. Cell viability (MTT), membrane integrity (LDH), ion-dependent ATPase activities (Na
