Agranulocytosis Induced by Sinomenine Hydrochloride.
Article in The American journal of case reports, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
BACKGROUND Sinomenine hydrochloride is an alkaloid that is extracted from the Chinese herbal plant Sinomenium acutum, and is used as a herbal medicine in the treatment or rheumatic disease. This report is the first to describe a case of sinomenine hydrochloride-induced agranulocytosis. CASE REPORT A 44-year-old woman with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and systemic sclerosis (SSc) was treated with sinomenine hydrochloride and developed agranulocytosis with a neutrophil count of 0.01×10^9/L. She subsequently developed an opportunistic bacterial infection. Bone marrow aspiration showed a severe reduction in the proportion of mature granulocytes. The patient discontinued sinomenine hydrochloride therapy and was treated with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) and antibiotics. The patient showed a return to normal granulocyte levels within ten days of discontinuing treatment with sinomenine hydrochloride. CONCLUSIONS The findings of this case report show that monitoring of bone marrow function and granulocyte levels should be performed during treatment with sinomenine hydrochloride.
