Local honokiol application inhibits intimal thickening in rabbits following carotid artery balloon injury.
Article in Molecular medicine reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
Honokiol is a natural bioactive product with anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative, anti-angiogenic and neuroprotective properties. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of honokiol treatment on intimal thickening following vascular balloon injury. The current study determined that perivascular honokiol application reduced intimal thickening in rabbits 14 days after carotid artery injury, it may inhibit vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMCs) proliferation and reduce collagen deposition in local arteries. The findings of the presents study also suggested that honikiol may increase the mRNA expression levels of matrix metalloproteinase‑1 (MMP‑1), MMP‑2 and MMP‑9 and decrease tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase‑1 (TIMP‑1) mRNA expression in the rabbit arteries. Additionally, perivascular honokiol application inhibited intimal thickening, possibly via inhibition of the phosphorylation of SMAD family member 2/3.
