Trifolin inhibits the calcium-driven contraction pathway in vascular smooth muscle.
Article in Frontiers in pharmacology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Trifolin, a bioactive component of the Qingda granule, has demonstrated significant antihypertensive potential; however, its precise mechanisms of action remain largely unknown. This study aimed to investigate the antihypertensive effects of trifolin and unravel its underlying molecular mechanisms. The influence of trifolin on vascular contraction and relaxation and its regulatory effects on ion channels were evaluated through a vascular tension experiment. Morphological changes in the aortic tissues of mice with angiotensin Ⅱ-induced hypertension and the expression profiles of contraction-associated proteins were analyzed via hematoxylin-eosin staining and immunohistochemistry. Additionally, trifolin's impact on calcium ion dynamics and contraction-associated protein expression in angiotensin Ⅱ-activated vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) was determined through calcium flux assays and western blot analyses. Trifolin treatment decreased the constriction of isolated abdominal aortic rings induced by norepinephrine, KCl, and angiotensin Ⅱ in an endothelium-independent manner and extracellular Ca
