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
objectiveobserve the curative effect of the simple obesity patients who are complicated with hypertension and are treated by oral drugs under the adjuvant treatment of acupoint massage nursing.
methodsa total of 42 patients, who suffer from simple obesity but are complicated with mild to moderate hypertension, are selected and then randomly divided into an observation group and a control group by the digital table method. Each group consists of 21 patients. The patients in the control group are treated by the normal oral drugs, while those in the observation group are intervened by acupoint massage except the normal oral drug treatment provided for the control group. Respectively test the body fat percentage content, blood fat and blood pressure indicators of the selected patients in the two groups before treatment and after 12 weeks' treatment.
resultsafter 12 weeks' treatment, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and blood fat indicators of the patients in the control group are improved significantly compared with those before treatment, P < 0.05, but their percentage of body fat does not change significantly, P > 0.05; systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, blood fat and body fat percentage of the patients in the observation group are significantly improved compared with those before treatment and their improvement effect is better than that of the control group, P < 0.05. Moreover, the relapse rate of the patients in the observation group, who have been cured, is also obviously lower than that of the control group.
conclusionas for the simple obesity patients who are complicated with hypertension, if they accept acupoint massage stimulation therapy, assisted with oral drugs for treatment, their curative effect is obviously superior to that of the single drug treatment.
