Coix Seed Oil Ameliorates Rheumatoid Arthritis by Modulating Inflammation-Associated Metabolic Pathways.
Article in Current issues in molecular biology, 2026. 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
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic disease that primarily manifests as symmetrical joint inflammation. Although Coix Seed Oil (CSO) has demonstrated anti-inflammatory effects in RA rat models, its systemic metabolic regulatory mechanisms remain unclear. Therefore, we aimed to investigate whether CSO ameliorates RA by modulating inflammation-associated metabolic pathways. Ultra-High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (UHPLC)-Q Exactive HF-X-MS-based metabolomics was used to profile metabolites in the synovial tissue and serum of complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA)-induced RA rats. Systematically altered metabolites and their associated pathways were identified using multivariate analysis and pattern recognition. CSO treatment modulated 16 RA-related biomarkers in rat synovial tissues and 12 in the serum, which mainly affected amino acids, arachidonic acids, lipids, sphingolipids, and carnitines. These metabolites were associated with eight perturbed metabolic pathways that were predominantly involved in inflammatory responses. This study demonstrated that CSO has significant anti-RA effects on pharmacodynamic activity and metabolic network regulation. Additionally, inflammation-associated metabolic pathways are closely linked to the therapeutic efficacy of CSO in RA treatment.
