Qingfeijianpi therapy for persistent allergic rhinitis: A randomized, positive-controlled clinical trial.
Trial report in Medicine, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
This study aims to investigate the effectiveness and safety of Qingfeijianpi therapy for persistent allergic rhinitis (AR).A total of 101 patients with persistent AR were included into the study. These patients were randomly divided into 2 groups: treatment group, in which patients were given Qingfeijianpi decoction (1 dose/day for 4 weeks); control group, in which patients were given an oral dose of loratadine (tablet, 10 mg/time, once per day for 4 weeks). A total of 96 patients completed the 16-week course of treatment. The nasal symptom and traditional Chinese medicine syndrome were scored to evaluate symptom improvement, and the Rhinoconjunctivitis Quality of Life Questionnaire was used to assess the quality of life of patients. Furthermore, the 4-week clinical treatment effect and 16-week follow up were evaluated.After the 4-week treatment, the mean difference in symptom score in the treatment group was similar to that in the control group. However, during the follow-up, the decrease in symptom score was better with the Qingfeijianpi therapy than with loratadine.Compared to loratadine, the Qingfeijianpi decoction exhibited a significant benefit in symptom improvement of persistent AR.
