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

Endocannabinoids (eCBs) and eCB-like substances are lipid mediators that play vital roles in regulating diverse physiological and pathological processes. These effects are predominantly mediated through interactions with cannabinoid receptors (CBRs), particularly CB1R and CB2R. Due to their typically low abundance in biological samples, the development of precise and efficient analytical methods is essential for accurate quantification of eCBs. The liver serves as a critical site of eCB activity, where dysregulation of eCB levels has been associated with various liver diseases. This review focuses on recent advancements in sample preparation and analytical techniques for eCBs and eCB-like substances from 2017 to 2024, providing a comprehensive evaluation of their strengths and limitations. Additionally, the roles of eCBs in liver lipid metabolism and their involvement in pathological processes are explored in detail. eCBs and eCB-like substances hold promise as diagnostic biomarkers, offering significant potential for applications in both basic research and clinical practice.
