Investigation of the osteogenic effects of ICA and ICSII on rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Icariin (ICA) serves as the primary biologically active compound in traditional Chinese medicine Epimedium, while Icariside II (ICSII) represents one of its gastrointestinal metabolites. Although ICA and ICSII have demonstrated osteogenic differentiation- promoting effects on BMSCs, there is limited literature comparing their effects and underlying mechanisms. This study aimed to compare the osteogenic effects of Icariin and Icariside II, along with their respective osteogenic mechanisms. In this study, we initially determined the optimal concentrations of Icariin (10
