Forest plot of alanine aminotransferase normalization after carnitine-orotate (or carnitine-orotate complex) versus control treatment. The carnitine–orotate complex includes carnitine-orotate, BDD, and other minor supplementary compounds. The dosage of carnitine-orotate in the included studies in this analysis was 900 mg per day, which is the usual dosage for clinical purposes. * The values in this study were provided by the corresponding author. BDD, biphenyl dimethyl dicarboxylate; M-H, Mantel–Haenszel; CI, confidence interval; df, degrees of freedom.
