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

backgroundCompound danshen dripping pills (CDDP) and trimetazidine (TMZ) are commonly used in the treatment of unstable angina pectoris (UAP). Currently, the combination of CDDP and TMZ has been widely used for UAP. However, the clinical evidence CDDP combined with TMZ for treating UAP is not sufficient.

methodsWe searched for randomized controlled trials testing CDDP combined with TMZ for the treatment of UAP in Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure database, VIP database, Chinese Biological and Medicine database, Wangfang database, MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science. Extracted data are analyzed using Review Manager 5.3 software. The quality evaluation, forest plots and funnel plots will be conducted by RevMan5.3 software. Moreover, subgroup analysis and sensitivity analysis will also be completed by RevMan5.3.

resultsThis systematic review will provide powerful clinical evidence of combination CDDP and TMZ for treating UAP.

conclusionsThis systematic review will be provided up-to-date clinical evidence to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of CDDP combined with TMZ for the treatment of parents with UAP.Registration Number: PROSPERO CRD42019143100.
