Yinzhihuang oral liquid in the treatment of neonatal jaundice: a meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Pharmaceutical biology, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
contextYinzhihuang oral liquid, a well-known Chinese herbal formula, is a clinical drug for the treatment of neonatal jaundice, and a number of clinical trials have been published addressing this issue, but there is no comprehensive analysis that evaluates its efficacy for the treatment of newborn with hyperbilirubinaemia.
objectiveA meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of Yinzhihuang oral liquid on neonatal jaundice.
methodsSearch was performed throughout PubMed, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, Ovid, Wanfang, VIP Medicine Information System (VMIS) and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) databases up to December 2015. The search terms were (Yinzhihuang oral liquid or Yinzhihuang oral solution), (neonatal jaundice or neonatal hyperbilirubinaemia), and (efficacy). Review Manager 5.2 software was used for analyzing the data. Data were pooled by using the random-effects models and expressed as relative ratio (RR), standardized mean difference (SMD) or mean difference (MD) with a 95% confidence interval (CI). The Cochrane tool was applied to assess the risk of bias of the trials.
resultsYinzhihuang oral liquid in conjunction with other therapy increased effective rate of neonatal jaundice therapy (RR =1.14, 95%CI: 1.08-1.20). Yinzhihuang oral liquid significantly eliminated overproduced bilirubin which was measured by TSB or TCB at the third day and fifth day during the treatment {[third day, SMD = -1.63, 95%CI: -2.20 to (-1.06)], [fifth day, SMD = -5.00, 95%CI: -7.88 to (-2.12)]}; Yinzhihuang oral liquid significantly shortened jaundice subsiding time [MD = -3.20, 95%CI: -6.01to (-0.39)].
conclusionYinzhihuang oral liquid can be considered as an effective treatment option for neonatal jaundice.
