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

Treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) by synthetic active ingredients leads to many side effects. The objective of this study was to manage IBD using natural products as curcumin and Ginkgo biloba. Rats were divided into four groups (control, IBD, curcumin treated, and ginkgo treated). Inflammation was assessed by determination of myeloperoxidase, matrix metalloproteinases, metalloproteinase-1 inhibitor, nitric oxide, hydroxyproline, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, ceruloplasmin, and histopathological scoring. IBD induction significantly increased all measured parameters. Treated groups had significantly lower levels when compared with the IBD group. In conclusion, curcumin and ginkgo were effective in prevention and treatment of IBD.
