Article in Medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundInsomnia has become a universal subhealth disease, affecting more and more modern people's health and quality of life. At present, western medicine is only symptomatic treatment for insomnia. Bailemian Capsule (BLMC) is a proprietary Chinese medicine for treating insomnia. It has been widely used in China, but lacks evidence for evidence-based medicine. At the same time, the clinical efficacy and safety of BLMC are controversial. Therefore, the effectiveness and safety of BLMC in the treatment of insomnia are studied and systematically evaluated in this study. It provides reliable theoretical support for the treatment of insomnia with Traditional Chinese Medicine and the combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine.
methodsThe information was retrieved from electronic databases, Cochrane, PubMed, EMBASE, SinoMed, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, VIP Data, and WangFang Data. Randomized controlled trials on the BLMC in the treatment of insomnia were conducted. There was no limitation on the literature language. RevMan 5.3 software and STATA 12.0 software were used to perform the meta-analysis.
resultsThis review will be to assess the efficacy and safety of BLMC for insomnia.
conclusionOur systematic evaluation will provide evidence for the clinical efficacy and safety of BLMC in the treatment of insomnia, and will be published in the form of academic papers in the future to provide new ideas for clinicians in the treatment of insomnia.
