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

Premna odorata (family Verbenaceae), known as "Alagaw" in the Philippines, has traditionally been used to treat inflammatory respiratory conditions; however, molecular evidence supporting its pharmacological effects remains limited. Given that NOD-like receptor pyrin domain-containing protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome-driven IL-1β secretion plays a central role in inflammatory respiratory conditions, we investigated whether P. odorata extract (POE) modulates NLRP3 inflammasome activation. In LPS-primed J774A.1 and THP-1 macrophages, POE reduced IL-1β secretion induced by ATP or nigericin without affecting NLRC4 or AIM2 inflammasome activation, indicating NLRP3 selectivity. POE treatment inhibited adaptor apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing CARD (ASC) oligomerization and speck formation without affecting cell viability or intracellular ROS levels, indicating suppression of inflammasome assembly. In vivo, POE attenuated inflammatory cell infiltration in an LPS-induced zebrafish model. Together, these findings indicate that POE suppresses NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated inflammatory responses, providing a molecular basis for its traditional use in managing inflammatory conditions and offering a promising natural scaffold for the development of NLRP3-targeted therapeutics.
