Article in Nan fang yi ke da xue xue bao = Journal of Southern Medical University, 2025. 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
objectivesTo investigate the therapeutic effect of the natural compound niranthin on Crohn's disease-like colitis in mice and explore the underlying molecular mechanisms.
methodsIn a mouse model of colitis induced by 2,4,6-trinitro-benzenesulfonic acid (TNBS), the therapeutic effect of niranthin was evaluated by observing the changes in body weight, disease activity index (DAI), and colon length of the mice. The levels of inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-17A and IL-10) in the intestinal mucosal tissue were detected using ELISA and quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). TUNEL staining and Western blotting were used to assess intestinal epithelial cell apoptosis and the expressions of Bcl-2 and Bax. The expression levels of tight junction proteins (ZO-1 and claudin-1) and the activation of the p38/JNK signaling pathway were investigated using Western blotting, and diprovocim intervention experiments were conducted to explore the molecular regulatory mechanism of niranthin.
resultsNiranthin treatment significantly increased body weight of TNBS-treated mice, lowered the DAI and histological inflammation scores, and increased colon length of the mice. The niranthin-treated mouse models showed obviously reduced protein and mRNA levels of IL-6, IL-1β, IL-17A, and TNF-α and upregulated expression of IL-10 in the colon tissue. TUNEL staining and Western blotting demonstrated that niranthin significantly inhibited intestinal epithelial cell apoptosis and activated the anti-apoptotic pathway in the mouse models. Niranthin treatment obviously upregulated the expression levels of ZO-1 and claudin-1 and downregulated the phosphorylation levels of p38 and JNK in the colon tissues of the mice. Diprovocim intervention obviously attenuated the inactivation of the p38/JNK signaling pathway induced by niranthin in the mouse models.
conclusionsNiranthin ameliorates TNBS-induced Crohn's disease-like colitis in mice by inhibiting intestinal epithelial cell apoptosis and protecting the integrity of the intestinal barrier
