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

The aim of the present study was to characterize the molecular mechanism of the effective components of JiaWeiXianJiTang (JWXJT), a traditional Chinese medicine, on inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) using network pharmacology technology. Data regarding natural molecules of JWXJT, targets of IBD, and interactions between natural molecules and IBD targets were screened. Network pharmacology of the interactions between natural molecules and IBD targets were drawn using Cytoscape v3.2.1. As a result of screening, 205 interactions were identified between 673 natural molecules and 76 targets of IBD. By analyzing the effective components, the complex effect mechanism of JWXJT on IBD was identified to be via enhancement of the immune system, inhibiting novel blood vessel growth through 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase, 5' AMP-activated protein kinase, interleukin-2 and macrophage colony-stimulating factor-1, and resulting in inflammation inhibition. In addition, JWXJT ameliorated IBD by antagonizing various molecular targets of IBD through its effective components, inhibiting inflammatory reactions, improving patient quality of life, as well as reducing the incidence of cancer.
