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
objectiveEarly nutritional support in patients with gastric cancer can improve their nutritional status, but the impact on immune function has not been confirmed. This study aimed to analyze the effects of Qihuang decoction combined with enteral nutrition on nutrition and the immune function of postoperative gastric cancer.
methods120 patients with postoperative gastric cancer in the study group and 117 in the control group were selected as the study subjects from our hospital at random. Indications of nutrition and immune and the rates of complications were compared the day before surgery and 1, 3, 7, and 14 days after surgery.
resultsIndications of nutrition except hemoglobin (HB) in the study group were significantly higher than those before operation and the albumin (ALB) and prealbumin (TP) were significantly increased 7 and 14 days after surgery (
conclusionsQihuang decoction combined with enteral nutrition can promote the absorption of enteral nutrition with improving the immune and reducing complications of infection.
