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
introductionPsoriasis vulgaris (PV) is a chronic, painful, disfiguring, and disabling dermatological disease, which affects the physical and mental health of patients and impacts their quality of life. Current conventional systemic therapies can be costly, present risks of side effects, have limited efficacy and commonly recur following treatment cessation. Some Chinese herbal medicine therapies have shown therapeutic benefits for psoriasis vulgaris, including relieving symptoms and improving quality of life, and a potential of reducing relapse rate. However, explicit evidence has not yet been obtained. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: This is a pilot randomized controlled trial with the objective of investigating the effect of Jia Wei Liang Xue Xiao Feng San granules on relapse rate of recurrent PV and the correlation between Psoriasis area severity index (PASI) and key psoriasis-related cytokine changes and the number of cells. A total of 102 participants were recruited for this study, including 72 patients with recurrent PV, 15 healthy volunteers and 15 patients with psoriasis vulgaris who have recovered for more than 1 year. A total of 72 patients, with recurrent PV, will be randomized (1:1) to receive the oral Chinese herbal medicine Jia Wei Liang Xue Xiao Feng San or the oral Acitretin Capsule treatments for a period of 8 weeks. After this period, participants whose PASI scores improvement reached more than 75%, will undergo a 52-week follow-up phase.The primary outcome measures are as follows:The secondary study outcomes will include:This trial may provide a novel regimen for recurrent PV patients if the granules decrease recurrence rate without further adverse effects. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: The ethics approval was provided by the Sichuan Traditional Chinese medicine regional ethics review committee. The ethics approval number is 2018KL-055. The design and the results of the study will be disseminated through peer-reviewed publications and conference presentations. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR1900022766).
