In vivo and in silico study of europinidin against streptozotocin-isoproterenol-induced myocardial damage via alteration of hs-CRP/CPK-MB/Caspase-3/Bcl-2 pathways.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Europinidin is a novel anthocyanidin found in the petals of Plumbago europea that exhibits several physiological effects. Research was conducted to assess europinidin's cardioprotective efficacy in a diabetic and myocardial infarction (MI) experimental model. Rat was injected through the intraperitoneal administration of 45 mg/kg of streptozotocin (STZ), while MI was induced by subcutaneously administering 85 mg/kg of isoproterenol (ISP) at 24 and 48 h prior to the sacrifice procedure. Europinidin 10 and 20 mg/day was administered orally for 4 weeks after validation of diabetes (glucose > 250 mg/dl) on the 7th day. Experimental rats were randomly allocated to control, STZ-ISP control, STZ-ISP + europinidin-10 mg, STZ-ISP + europinidin-20 mg and europinidin 20 mg perse group. Biochemicals parameters including anti-diabetic (Glucose, HbA1c, serum insulin), cardiac markers (hs-CRP, CPK-MB), dyslipidaemia (lipid analysis), anti-inflammatory (IL6, TNF-α and IL-β), oxidative stress (MDA) and antioxidant (SOD, CAT and GSH), kidney function (creatinine), liver function (AST) and pancreatic function (lipase) along with apoptosis markers (Bcl-2, caspase-3) were evaluated. In addition, histopathological indices of heart injury were investigated. In addition, molecular docking (AUTODOCK Tools 1.5.6.) and dynamics were performed. Europinidin (10 and 20 mg/day) reduced blood glucose, HbA1c, hs-CRP, and CPK-MB. It improved serum insulin, blood lipid profile and reduced inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, TNF-α, IL-β), oxidative stress and increased antioxidant enzymes (SOD, CAT and GSH). Europinidin also protected renal, hepatic functions and restored apoptosis markers (increased Bcl-2, decreased caspase-3 levels). Histopathological analysis demonstrated a reduced extent of myocardial necrosis and fibrosis. Europinidin binds in silico to proteins 1NME, 1I0E, 3I2Y and 4AQ3 with energies of -7.038, -6.682, -8.6 and - 8.761 kcal/mol, respectively. While molecular dynamics simulation studies supported the interactions of europinidin with important therapeutic target proteins. Europinidin demonstrates significant cardioprotective and anti-diabetic potential in a diabetic MI experimental model.
