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

objectiveTo study the effects of Huanglian Jiedu Decoction (HJD) on gut microflora of SD rats.

methodAfter 3 days of adaptive feeding, 36 rats were randomly divided into 4 groups, namely, the normal control group (NC, 10 mL/kg, distilled water), high_HJD dose group (H_HJD, 6.25 g/kg, weight ratio between crude drug and rat), medium_HJD dose group (M_HJD, 3.125 g/kg), and low_HJD dose group (L_HJD, 1.56 g/kg), and each group consisted of 9 mice. The HJD groups were then treated with orally administered HJD for 21 days, while the NC group was treated with distilled water. After 7 days, 14 days, and 21 days of the experiment and after 12 hours of fasting and water deprivation, 3 SD rats in each group were randomly sacrificed by cervical dislocation and sterile operation to collect stool faces. Sample DNA was extracted by Fecal total DNA extraction kit, sequenced using Illumina MiSeq platform, and analyzed.

resultsThe abundance of

conclusionHJD can regulate gut microbiota, and its effect varies with different dosage and duration of medication.
