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

backgroundChronic heart failure (CHF) is one of the most serious cardiovascular diseases. Shenqi Fuzheng injection (SQFZI), as a Chinese herbal injection, is usually used for the treatment of CHF. However, the clinical evidence of SQFZI for the treatment of CHF is unclear.

methodsTwo researchers will dependently search literatures of SQFZI for CHF from Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure database, VIP database, Chinese Biological and Medicine database, Wangfang database, MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Library and Web of Science. These inclusive data of included studies will be conducted by RevMan 5.3 software.

resultsThis meta-analysis and systematic review will provide a series of outcome measures to verify clinical efficacy and safety of SQFZI for treating CHF, including New York Heart Association (NYHA) function classification, left ventricular ejection fraction, left ventricular end-diastolic dimension, cardiac output, stroke volume, brain natriuretic peptide, N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide, and adverse events.

conclusionsThis meta-analysis and systematic review will provide up-to-date clinical evidence to assess SQFZI treatment efficacy for CHF patients.
