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

We evaluated the hemolytic activity of 41 commercially available triterpenoid saponins and sapogenins derived from three types of structural skeletons. Structure-activity relationships were established by comparing the structural characteristics of both the aglycone and sugar moieties among the tested compounds. The majority of oleanane-type sapogenins had stronger hemolytic effects than those of the ursane and dammarane types. The presence of polar regions on sapogenins, such as a carboxyl (COOH) at position 28, an α-hydroxyl (α-OH) at position 16, and/or a β-hydroxyl (β-OH) at position 2, significantly enhanced hemolysis. Meanwhile, the introduction of an α-OH at position 2 or a methyl hydroxyl (CH
