Network Pharmacology-Based Prediction and Verification of the Potential Targets of Pinoresinol Diglucoside for OA Treatment.
Article in Evidence-based complementary and alternative medicine : eCAM, 2022. 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
Objective: This study aimed to explore the effects and related mechanisms of pinoresinol diglucoside (PDG) on osteoarthritis (OA) via a combination of pharmacology and animal experiments. Methods: Traditional Chinese Medicine Database and Analysis Platform (TCMSP) Drugbank, Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man, and GeneCards databases were used to predict the putative targets of PGD against OA. A protein protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed in STING database to analyze the interaction network of these targets. Enrichment analysis was performed with DAVID database. The OA model was built by anterior cruciate ligament transection and then injected with PDG for 5 weeks. Hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining and safranin-fixed green staining were used to evaluate the pathological change. ELISA was applied to measure the serum levels of interleukin-1 Results: Seventy-one key targets were identified, including AKT1, epidermal growth factor receptor, SRC, estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1), and MMP9. Enrichment analysis revealed a series of pathway related to cancer, PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, and proteoglycans in cancer. Animal experiments showed that PDG alleviated the abnormal histomorphological changes of OA; suppressed TIPM, serum IL-1 Conclusion: PDG has a cartilage-protecting effect associated with PI3K/AKT signaling pathway in rabbit with OA and therefore might serve as a potential agent for the treatment of this disease.
