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

Ginsenosides Rb1, Rh1, Rg1 and Rg3 are known as the main active components extracted from the roots of the Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer, and were reported to have immunoregulatory effects. Disruption of B-cell immune regulation during the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) may lead to the production of large amounts of antibodies. The present study investigated the effects of the four ginsenoside monomers on B-cell immune regulation and observed that they inhibited the proliferation and secretion of B cells induced by LPS, caused an upregulation of the expression of apoptosis-associated proteins Fas/Fas ligand and caspase-3, the expression of FcγRIIB (CD32) as well as the proportion of inactive B cells (CD19
