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

Yunnan Baiyao is anecdotally widely used in veterinary medicine for its pro-coagulation properties. There are no studies determining its effect on clotting tests. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of oral Yunnan Baiyao (YB) on hemostasis by measuring coagulation via kaolin activated citrated whole blood thromboelastography (TEG), prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), fibrinogen, and d-dimers. The study was a prospective, randomized controlled crossover trial. Eight healthy University of Calgary owned beagles were treated orally with either Yunnan Baiyao or placebo every 12 h for 5 treatments. Blood was collected immediately before treatment, 2 h after the last treatment, and 24 h after the last treatment. TEG analysis was run 30 ± 5 min after blood collection. All other coagulation analyses were sent to a reference laboratory for further analysis. No treatment adverse effects were observed. Oral YB increased R-time significantly within the YB group, but the increase was still within canine reference ranges. No other changes were observed. Oral YB at the dosage and frequency administered in this study did not produce any significant improvement in hemostatic parameters. There is a need for further research and scientific evidence for YB use and dosage.
