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

Sorbus commixta, a plant from the Rosaceae family, is native to Asia and cultivated in Europe and North America. Here, we evaluated the potential of S. commixta leaves as a source of biologically active compounds, including rare flavanones. The methanol-water extract (ME) and its bioactive polyphenol-enriched fractions were assessed for phytochemical composition, biological activity, and composition-activity relationships. A total of 78 compounds were identified by UHPLC-PDA-ESI-MS/MS, with a content reaching 589 mg/g of dry weight. Among the tested samples, ME and the n-butanol fraction (BF) exhibited the strongest biological effects. Both significantly protected human plasma components against peroxynitrite-induced oxidative and nitrative stress (ex vivo model) and inhibited the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, IL-2, TNF-α) from stimulated human peripheral blood mononuclear cells in vitro. The BF fraction also demonstrated pronounced antidiabetic activity, showing approximately 17- to 26-fold stronger effects than acarbose and aminoguanidine in inhibiting α-glucosidase and the formation of advanced glycation end products in vitro. Statistical analysis revealed significant correlation of the observed effects with polymeric proanthocyanidins, flavonol diglycosides, caffeoylquinic acids, and monoglycosides of flavonols and flavanones. These findings support further in vivo investigation of S. commixta leaf extracts and highlight the need for their standardised quality control strategies.
