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.

Randomized controlled trials of Chinese herbal compound for the treatment of allergic rhinitis in children will be included. Two researchers will screen the literature, extract data, and assess the risk of bias independently. Statistical analysis will be performed in RevMan 5.3.

resultsThis study will summarize high quality evidence of randomized controlled trials on exploring the efficacy and safety of Chinese herbal compound for allergic rhinitis in children.

conclusionsThe findings of study will provide scientific evidence of the efficacy and safety of Chinese herbal compound for allergic rhinitis in children for clinician and further studies. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: The private information from individuals will not be published. This systematic review also will not involve endangering participant rights. Ethical approval is not required. The results may be published in a peer-reviewed journal or disseminated in relevant conferences. OSF REGISTRATION NUMBER: DOI 10.17605/OSF.IO/Q5TRZ.
