Ginger in patients with active ulcerative colitis: a study protocol for a randomized controlled trial.
Article in Trials, 2020. 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
backgroundAs a lifetime disorder, ulcerative colitis (UC) is an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that affects quality of life and also demands long-term interventions. In spite of considerable side effects and sometimes restricted uses, efficient medications are available for UC treatment. Some in vitro and in vivo examinations have correspondingly introduced ginger and its active components with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-ulcerative properties. Therefore, this trial aims to evaluate the effect of ginger supplementation on patients with active UC.
methodsThis study will be a 12-week, double-blind, parallel-group, randomized, controlled trial (RCT) in which 44 patients will be allocated to ginger and placebo groups receiving basic routine treatments plus ginger or placebo capsules, respectively. The primary outcomes are inflammatory markers (TNF-α and hs-CRP) and total antioxidant capacity. DISCUSSION: The findings of this trial will provide evidence on the effect of ginger on patients with active UC.
