Quercetin in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis and Its Comorbidities: Gene Regulatory Mechanisms and Therapeutic Implications.
Review in Genes, 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
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic and progressive interstitial lung disease associated with high morbidity and mortality. Both pulmonary and extrapulmonary comorbidities significantly influence disease progression and patient outcomes. Despite current therapeutic options, effective treatments remain limited. Quercetin, a naturally occurring flavonoid, has emerged as a promising compound due to its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antifibrotic properties. Preclinical and clinical studies have demonstrated its ability to modulate key molecular pathways involved in IPF, including Nrf2, SIRT1/AMPK, and the regulation of fibrosis-associated microRNAs (miRNAs). Furthermore, quercetin shows therapeutic potential across a range of IPF-related comorbidities, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pulmonary hypertension, lung cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and psychiatric disorders. Under these conditions, quercetin acts via epigenetic modulation of miRNAs and regulation of oxidative stress and inflammatory signaling pathways. This review highlights the multifunctional role of quercetin in IPF and its comorbidities, emphasizing its gene regulatory mechanisms and potential as an adjunctive or alternative therapeutic strategy.
