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

Aging is accompanied by progressive physiological decline and an increased risk of chronic disease, motivating the search for interventions that promote healthy longevity. We found that mid-life administration of Corylin, a flavonoid derived from Psoralea corylifolia, improves metabolic function, muscle integrity, and physical performance in mice maintained on a standard diet. Corylin significantly extends median lifespan in female mice, with an 11.9% increase and a 33% higher survival rate at 125 weeks, whereas no comparable benefit is observed in males. Here, we show that integrated multi-omics analyses across multiple tissues reveal coordinated age-associated molecular changes modulated by Corylin. These analyses link Corylin treatment to suppression of mechanistic target of rapamycin signaling, which is further supported by direct interaction between Corylin and Ras-related GTP-binding protein A. In addition, Corylin restores sirtuin 3 protein levels and energy-associated metabolic programs in female mice, providing mechanistic insight into sex-dependent longevity benefits.
