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

backgroundShikonin is a natural remedy that is effective at treating diabetic wounds. NFAT5 is a potential therapeutic target for diabetes, and mitochondrial function is essential for wound healing. However, the relationship among Shikonin, NFAT5, and mitochondrial function has not been thoroughly studied. Here, we offer new perspectives on the advantages of shikonin for managing diabetes.

aimTo assess the therapeutic mechanism of shikonin in diabetic wounds, its relationship with NFAT5, and its protection of mitochondrial function.

methodsHypertonic cell and diabetic wound mouse models were established. NFAT5 expression was measured through western blotting and immunofluorescence,

resultsShikonin treatment preserved HaCaT cell viability, while significantly reducing cyclooxygenase-2 expression levels in a high-glucose environment (
