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

Inflammation and angiogenesis are two major contributors to tumourigenesis. Melilotus indicus is traditionally used as an anti-inflammatory agent. The current study was designed to investigate the anti-inflammatory and anti-angiogenic properties of ethanolic extract of M. indicus (Miet) whole plant and its marker compound (coumarin) using a series of in vivo methods. Extraction by maceration was adopted to prepare ethanolic extract. Phytochemical compounds present in Miet were investigated using both qualitative and quantitative methods. In vivo safety profile of Miet was investigated in behavioural studies. Four acute oedema models such as carrageenan, serotonin, histamine-induced paw oedema and xylene-induced ear oedema, and chronic formaldehyde-induced paw oedema model were employed to explore the anti-inflammatory potential of Miet. Chorioallantoic chick membrane assay (CAM) was performed to explore anti-angiogenic potential of Miet. Histopathological evaluations were conducted to access improvement in skin texture of paws. TNF-α ELISA kit was used to study effects of treatment on serum levels of TNF-α. Extraction by maceration resulted in formation of greenish coloured semisolid extract with a high coumarin content. In vivo toxicological studies revealed LD
