Positive Effects of Ger-Gen-Chyn-Lian-Tang on Cholestatic Liver Fibrosis in Bile Duct Ligation-Challenged Mice.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether Ger-Gen-Chyn-Lian-Tang (GGCLT) suppresses oxidative stress, inflammation, and angiogenesis during experimental liver fibrosis through the hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α)-mediated pathway. Male C57BL/6 mice were randomly assigned to a sham-control or bile duct ligation (BDL) group with or without treatment with GGCLT at 30, 100, and 300 mg/kg. Plasma alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels were analyzed using a diagnostic kit. Liver histopathology and hepatic status parameters were measured. Compared to control mice, the BDL mice exhibited an enlargement in liver HIF-1α levels, which was suppressed by 100 and 300 mg/kg GGCLT treatments (control: BDL: BDL + GGCLT-100: BDL + GGCLT-300 = 0.95 ± 0.07: 1.95 ± 0.12: 1.43 ± 0.05: 1.12 ± 0.10 fold;
