Mechanistic insights and therapeutic potential of astilbin and apigenin in diabetic cardiomyopathy.
Review in Heliyon, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) represents a critical complication of Diabetes mellitus (DM), characterized by structural and functional changes in the myocardium independent of coronary artery disease or hypertension. Emerging evidence highlights the significant roles of phytochemicals, particularly astilbin and apigenin, in modulating key molecular pathways implicated in DCM. This review synthesizes current mechanistic insights and therapeutic potential of these compounds, focusing on their interactions with AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs), O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc), sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2), protein kinase C (PKC), nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB), mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathways. Astilbin and apigenin have demonstrated the ability to improve cardiac function, mitigate oxidative stress, and reduce inflammatory responses in diabetic conditions. By activating AMPK and PPARs, these flavonoids enhance glucose uptake and fatty acid oxidation, contributing to improved metabolic homeostasis. Their inhibition of O-GlcNAcylation, SGLT2 activity, and PKC signaling further attenuates hyperglycemia-induced cellular damage. Additionally, suppression of NF-κB, MAPK, and JNK pathways by astilbin and apigenin results in reduced pro-inflammatory cytokine production and apoptotic cell death. Collectively, these interactions position astilbin and apigenin as promising therapeutic agents for ameliorating DCM, offering novel avenues for treatment strategies aimed at modulating multiple pathogenic pathways.
