In Vitro and in Vivo Studies on Anti-Inflammatory Effects of Traditional Okinawan Vegetable Methanol Extracts.
Article in ACS omega, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
To determine anti-inflammatory effects of traditional Okinawan vegetable methanol extracts, we examined the inflammatory mediators from mouse macrophage by the addition of extracts prepared from two kinds of nishi-yomogi and hosoba-wadan. Moreover, we inspected the impact of extracts using a carrageenin-induced acute inflammatory animal model. In the case of in vitro study, nitric oxide and cytokine concentrations of supernatant were analyzed with Griess reagent and a commercially available enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit, respectively. Gene expressions related to the inflammation were extrapolated from the data of real-time polymerase chain reaction. In the case of in vivo study, six-week-old male Sprague Dawley rats were intraperitoneally administered with vegetable extracts, and then developed edema by carrageenin administration on the footpad. The footpad volume was obtained from the difference in volume before and after carrageenin administration. In the case of in vitro study, nitric oxide and tumor necrosis factor-α concentrations of the Kume nishi-yomogi were significantly lower (P < 0.05) than those of other groups, and also interleukin-6 concentration of the Kume nishi-yomogi was significantly lower (P < 0.05) than that of control. The iNOS and COX-2 gene expressions of Kume nishi-yomogi were significantly lower (P < 0.05) than those of other groups. In the case of in vivo study, the footpad volume between groups showed no significant difference; however, the decreased tendency of the footpad volume in Kume nishi-yomogi was observed as compared with other groups. From these results, it is expected that Kume nishi-yomogi extract might have a physiological function in the alleviating inflammation.
