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

Background: The root tuber of Methods: A polysaccharide-enriched fraction (CWP) was isolated from Results: CWP was characterized as a mannose- and glucose-rich polysaccharide-enriched fraction (average Mw 5.89 kDa; mannose 47.05 mol%, glucose 33.67 mol%) containing both α- and β-glycosidic configurations. Oral administration of CWP significantly reduced serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and total bile acids (TBA) at both doses tested, and attenuated hepatocyte necrosis and inflammatory infiltration in ANIT-challenged mice. Mechanistically, CWP upregulated bile acid synthesis enzymes ( Conclusion: CWP alleviates ANIT-induced cholestatic liver injury by restoring hepatic bile acid clearance, selectively remodeling the gut microbiota, and suppressing inflammation across the gut-liver axis. These results support further development of CWP as a functional macromolecule for managing cholestatic liver diseases.
