Naringenin modulates oxidative stress and lipid metabolism: Insights from network pharmacology, mendelian randomization, and molecular docking.
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: Previous studies have demonstrated that naringenin possesses lipid-lowering effects; however, the underlying mechanisms, particularly its specific molecular targets, remain uncertain. Methods: Using bioinformatics, three traditional Chinese medicine databases and one human disease database were integrated to establish two naringenin-target-hyperlipidemia modules: naringenin-oxidative stress (OS) and naringenin-lipid metabolism (LM). Data on 1,850 proteins from 1,871 genetic instruments were sourced from seven previous studies. Using Mendelian randomization based on data from the Integrative Epidemiology Unit genome-wide association study (case, n = 5,153; control, n = 344,069), we identified potential drug targets that were subsequently validated in the UK Biobank (396,565 individuals) and FinnGen (412,181 individuals) cohorts. Using molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation to verify the binding ability of naringenin and causal protein. Results: In plasma, every standard deviation increase in apolipoprotein B (APOB) was associated with an increased risk of hyperlipidemia (odds ratio [OR] = 9.37, 95% confidence interval [CI], 5.12-17.12; Conclusion: This Mendelian randomization-based combined analysis offers a robust framework for elucidating the pharmacological effects of naringenin and identifying candidate proteins for further investigation in the context of hyperlipidemia treatment.
