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: Hepatic fibrosis represents a critical pathological stage in the progression of chronic liver diseases, yet clinically effective and low-toxicity therapeutic options remain limited. Methods: Mice were randomly assigned to the blank control, model, silybin, Lizhu Changle (live Bifidobacterium adolescentis capsules), TMP monotherapy, APS monotherapy, and combination groups. Following the establishment of fibrosis by CCl Results: Compared with TMP or APS alone, the combination significantly improved multiple fibrosis-related, inflammatory, intestinal barrier, microbial diversity, and SCFA-related indices, although significant superiority was not observed for PC III and TNF-α. The combination also more strongly suppressed hepatic TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB pathway expression. Conclusion: TMP combined with APS exerts enhanced anti-hepatic fibrosis effects compared with either monotherapy. These effects are associated with changes in gut microbiota composition, elevated fecal short-chain fatty acid levels, reduced expression of hepatic TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB pathway-related molecules. These findings provide an experimental basis for further investigation of this herbal pair.
