Article in Journal of medicinal food, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Although there is a clear need for improving men's health, treatment with suitable natural substances has not yet been well established. Previously, it was reported that MR-10, a novel complex of Korean dandelion and rooibos found by screening many natural products, improved sperm generation and activity. Here, the ability of MR-10 to increase testosterone levels and enhance men's health was tested. Treatment with MR-10 (400 mg/day) for a month significantly increased levels of free testosterone, total testosterone, and the testosterone precursor dehydroepiandrosterone by 22%, 14%, and 32%, respectively, in clinical studies. Also, men's health in terms of mental, physical, and sexual aspects, as determined by using the clinical questionnaires Androgen Deficiency of Aging Men and Aging Males' Symptoms, was improved. Furthermore, the safety of MR-10 was determined by testing levels of prostate-specific antigen, glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, and glutamic pyruvate transaminase; and the lack of changes due to MR-10 treatment supports the safety of MR-10. In conclusion, this study suggests that MR-10 is a safe and effective natural product improving men's sexual health.
