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
objectivesTo investigate the therapeutic mechanism of nodakenin for Crohn's disease (CD)-like colitis in mice.
methodsUsing a colonic organoid model with lipopolysaccharide (LPS)- and ATP-induced pyroptosis, we investigated the effects of nodakenin on pyroptosis, intestinal barrier function and inflammatory response by detecting key pyroptosis-regulating factors and assessing changes in permeability and pro-inflammatory factors. In a mouse model of 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS)-induced CD-like colitis, the therapeutic effect of nodakenin was evaluated by measuring changes in body weight, DAI score, colonic histopathologies, inflammation score, intestinal barrier function and intestinal epithelial cell pyroptosis. The mechanism of nodakenin protection against pyroptosis of intestinal epithelial cells was explored using network pharmacology analysis and
resultsIn LPS- and ATP-induced colonic organoids, treatment with nodakenin significantly inhibited the expressions of NLRP3, GSDMD-N, cleaved caspase-1 and caspase-11, improved intestinal FITC-dextran (FD4, 4000) permeability, and decreased the levels of IL-1β and IL-18. In the mouse model of TNBS-induced colitis, nodakenin treatment significantly alleviated weight loss, reduced DAI score, inflammatory cell infiltration and inflammation score, and decreased serum FD4 and I-FABP levels and bacteria translocation to the mesenteric lymph nodes, spleen and liver. The mice with nodakenin treatment had also lowered expressions of NLRP3, GSDMD-N, cleaved caspase-1 and caspase-11 in the intestinal mucosa. Network pharmacology analysis suggested that the inhibitory effect of nodakenin on colitis was associated with the PI3K/Akt pathway. In both the colonic organoid model and mouse models of colitis, nodakenin effectively inhibited the activation of the PI3K/Akt pathway, and the application of IGF-1, a PI3K/Akt pathway activator, strongly attenuated the protective effect of nodakenin against intestinal epithelial cell pyroptosis and intestinal barrier dysfunction.
conclusionsNodakenin protects intestinal barrier function and alleviates CD-like colitis in mice at least partly by inhibiting PI3K/Akt signaling to reduce intestinal epithelial cell pyroptosis.
