Palmitoylethanolamide, an endogenous fatty acid amide, and its pleiotropic health benefits: A narrative review.
Article in Journal of biomedical research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The global nutritional transition has led to the increased frequency and severity of chronic degenerative diseases worldwide, primarily driven by chronic inflammatory stress. At mealtimes, various pharmaceutical products aim to prevent such inflammatory stress, but they usually cause various systemic side effects. Therefore, the supplementation of natural and safe ingredients is a promising strategy to reduce the risk and severity of inflammatory stress-related diseases. Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA), an endocannabinoid-like mediator, has been extensively studied for its diverse actions, including anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, immunostimulatory, neuroprotective, and pain-reducing effects, with high tolerability and safety in both animals and humans. Because of its multiple molecular targets and mechanisms of action, PEA has demonstrated therapeutic benefits in various diseases, including neurological, psychiatric, ophthalmic, metabolic, oncological, renal, hepatic, immunological, rheumatological, and gastrointestinal conditions. The current review highlights the roles and functions of PEA in various physiological and pathological conditions, further supporting its use as an important dietary agent.
