Ferulic acid suppresses the inflammation and apoptosis in Kawasaki disease through activating the AMPK/mTOR/NF-κB pathway.
Article in Frontiers in pharmacology, 2024. 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
Background: Kawasaki disease (KD) is a self-limiting and acute systemic vasculitis of unknown etiology, mainly affecting children. Ferulic acid (FA), a natural phenolic substance, has multiple pharmacological properties, including anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptosis, and anti-fibrosis, and so on. So far, the protective effects of FA on KD have not been explored. Methods: In this study, we established Results: Our Conclusion: In conclusion, FA has potential protective effects on KD, suggesting its promising role as an adjuvant for KD therapy in the future.
