Allicin regulates Treg/Th17 balance in mice with collagen-induced arthritis by increasing the expression of MEKK2 protein.
Article in Food science & nutrition, 2021. 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
To study the role of Allicin in regulating Treg/Th17 ratio in splenic lymphocyte by increasing the expression of MEKK2 protein in MAPK signaling pathway, and to explore the mechanism of immune response in mice with collagen-induced arthritis (CIA). Mouse CIA model was induced by chicken collagen type II, and experimental mice were randomly divided into NC group, Model group, and Allicin group. HE staining was used to compare the degree of joint pathological damage in mice of each group, and Masson staining to observe the proliferation of collagen tissue in each group. Flow cytometry detected Treg/Th17 ratio in splenic lymphocytes. Furthermore, RT-PCR and WB were used to detect the mRNA and protein expression of related transcription factors and inflammatory factors Foxp3, ROR-γt, and IL-17A, as well as MEK2 protein expression in splenic lymphocytes. The results showed that Allicin treatment could reduce the severity of arthritis and the proliferation of collagen fibers on the surface of cartilage and bone joints in CIA mice. Compared with NC group, Treg decreased and Th17 increased in spleen lymphocyte of Model group (
