Therapeutic Effect of Rosolic Acid against Endothelial Dysfunction in Diabetic Wistar Rats.
Article in Current medicinal chemistry, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionEndothelial dysfunction (ED) results from impaired vascular endothelial cell function, disrupting key processes such as hemostasis, vascular tone regulation, vasculogenesis, angiogenesis, and inflammation. These processes are mediated by a complex signaling network involving hormones, cytokines, and chemokines. ED is recognized as a major contributor to the onset and progression of several micro- and macrovascular diseases, including diabetes. Our previous study demonstrated that the polyphenol Rosolic acid (RA) protects against endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-induced ED
methodsIn this study, we investigated RA's protective effects against diabetes-induced ED using high-fat diet (HFD)-fed and streptozotocin-induced type-2 diabetic rat models. We evaluated RA's impact on vascular function and metabolic parameters in these models.
resultsRA significantly mitigated diabetes-induced ED in the aortic tissues of HFDfed diabetic Wistar rats. RA treatment improved glucose tolerance and reduced hyperlipidemia, showing efficacy comparable to the anti-diabetic drug Gliclazide. Moreover, RA elevated Nrf2 levels and its downstream target genes in aortic tissues while reducing ED markers such as Intercellular Adhesion Molecule 1 (ICAM1), vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM1), and endothelin-1.
conclusionThese findings highlight RA as a promising therapeutic agent for diabetes and its associated vascular complications, with potential for broader clinical applications.
