1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Inflammation is the body's defensive response to injury, infection, or external stimuli. While NSAIDs and corticosteroids are widely used to treat inflammatory diseases, their long-term application often leads to severe side effects, including gastrointestinal damage and cardiovascular toxicity, as well as drug resistance. This underscores the urgent need for developing safer and more effective anti-inflammatory agents. Natural products, particularly terpenoids, as the largest class of bioactive compounds, have garnered significant attention due to their potent anti-inflammatory properties and structural diversity. Through systematic structural modifications, researchers have developed numerous terpenoid derivatives with enhanced anti-inflammatory efficacy, providing valuable insights for drug discovery. This review comprehensively summarizes the antiinflammatory mechanisms and therapeutic potential of terpenoids and their derivatives over the past decade, offering new perspectives for anti-inflammatory drug development and identifying promising candidates for further investigation.
