Pharmacological effects and mechanisms of medicine food homology species and active ingredients in ameliorating ovarian aging.
Review in Frontiers in nutrition, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Ovarian aging is the process of decline in ovarian reserve, endocrine function with age, leading to reduced fertility and increased risk of various related diseases. In recent years, medicine food homology (MFH) species have attracted much attention for their potential to delay ovarian aging due to their dietary and medicinal values. In this review, we have focused on the intervention of MFH species and active ingredients on ovarian aging, with an emphasis on the molecular mechanisms involved in antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, apoptosis inhibitory, balance of autophagy, maintenance of genome stability, mitochondrial function protective and estrogen-like effects through multiple signaling pathways (e.g., PI3K/Akt, Nrf2/HO-1, SIRT1/mTOR, Nrf2/ARE, etc.). Possessing the characteristics of multi-pathway and multi-target effects, MFH species and active ingredients provide new ideas for the research and development of health food and functional preparations. High-quality clinical studies are still needed for verification.
