Ganoderic Acid A Inhibits High Glucose-Induced Oxidative Stress and Extracellular Matrix Accumulation in Rat Glomerular Mesangial Cells.
Article in Disease markers, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. 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
Objective: We aimed to investigate the role of ganoderic acid A (GAA) in glomerular mesangial cells (GMCs) under high glucose (HG). Methods: GMCs were pretreated with GAA and then cultured under HG condition for 24 h. Cell proliferation was measured by CCK-8 assay. The production of intracellular ROS was determined using DCFH-DA. The activities of SOD and CAT were measured using ELISA kits. The expressions of NOX2, NOX4, fibronectin (FN), collagen IV (col IV), p38, and p-p38 were detected by western blot. Results: GAA suppressed GMC proliferation in response to HG stimulation. GAA significantly attenuated HG-caused increase in ROS production and decreases in SOD and CAT activities in GMCs. In addition, the increased expressions of NOX2 and NOX4 and NOX activity in HG-induced GMCs were significantly decreased by GAA. Furthermore, GAA greatly inhibited the levels of FN and col IV in HG-stimulated GMCs. Mechanistic investigations showed that HG caused activation of p38 MAPK pathway, whereas the induction was mitigated by GAA. Notably, the specific agonist of p38 MAPK pathway (P79350) reversed the effects of GAA on GMCs. Conclusion: GAA protected GMCs from HG-induced oxidative stress and ECM production, which was mediated by the inhibition of the p38 MAPK pathway.
