Icaritin, an inhibitor of beta-site amyloid cleaving enzyme-1, inhibits secretion of amyloid precursor protein in APP-PS1-HEK293 cells by impeding the amyloidogenic pathway.
Article in PeerJ, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundIcaritin (ICT) is a prenylflavonoid derivative from
methodsWe exposed APP-PS1-HEK293 cells to ICT to investigate its effect on beta-site amyloid cleaving enzyme (BACE)1. Cell viability was evaluated by MTT and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) assays. The half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC
resultsIcaritin inhibited BACE1 activity and IC
conclusionsIcaritin, as a BACE1 inhibitor, inhibits APP secretion in APP-PS1-HEK293 cells by impeding the amyloidogenic pathway.
