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
Introduction: Apigenin is a natural flavonoid compound with promising potential for the attenuation of myocardial hypertrophy (MH). The compound can also modulate the expression of miR-185-5p that both promote MH and suppress autophagy. The current attempts to explain the anti-MH effect of apigenin by focusing on changes in miR-185-5p-mediated autophagy. Methods: Hypertrophic symptoms were induced in rats using transverse aortic constriction (TAC) method and in cardiomyocytes using Ang II and then handled with apigenin. Changes in myocardial function and structure and cell viability and surface area were measured. The role of miR-185-5p in the anti-MH function of apigenin was explored by detecting changes in autophagic processes and miR-185-5p/SREBP2 axis. Results: TAC surgery induced weight increase, structure destruction, and collagen deposition in hearts of model rats. Ang II suppresses cardiomyocyte viability and increased cell surface area. All these impairments were attenuated by apigenin and were associated with the restored level of autophagy. At the molecular level, the expression of miR-185-5p was up-regulated by TAC, while the expression of SREBP2 was down-regulated, which was reserved by apigenin both in vivo and in vitro. The induction of miR-185-5p in cardiomyocytes could counteracted the protective effects of apigenin. Discussion: Collectively, the findings outlined in the current study highlighted that apigenin showed anti-MH effects. The effects were related to the inhibition of miR-185-5p and activation of SREBP, which contributed to the increased autophagy.
