Ziziphus nummularia extract attenuates inflammatory markers in RAW 264.7 macrophages.
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 3 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
While inflammation is a vital immune response to harmful stimuli, chronic inflammation has been associated with several diseases such as arthritis, cardiovascular disorders, and cancers. Plant extracts, rich in bioactive compounds, have been used in traditional medicine to manage inflammation by modulating inflammatory pathways. Specifically, Ziziphus nummularia (Sidr), known for its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties, contains flavonoids, saponins, triterpenoids, and phenolics, but its mechanisms of action remain unclear. This study investigated the anti-inflammatory effects of an ethanolic extract from Z. nummularia leaves (ZNE) in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages. ZNE significantly reduced the expression of pro-inflammatory enzymes (COX2, iNOS), inhibited the production of inflammatory mediators (NO, ROS, TNF-α, IL-6), reduced cellular migration and modulated key signaling pathways (NF-κB, STAT-3, MAPKs). These findings highlight the potential of ZNE as a natural therapeutic agent for inflammation, warranting further exploration of its mechanism of action and potential clinical applications.
