Case Report: Nutritional Examination of Weight Loss Treatment Using Kampo.
Article in Frontiers in nutrition, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Loss of appetite is a common symptom in patients with dementia, and if weight loss or difficulty eating occurs without subjective symptoms, the patient can easily become malnourished. There is also a close relationship between dementia and physical frailty, such as weight loss and muscle weakness, and thus early intervention to address frailty in patients with dementia is important. In this study, 3 patients with dementia who complained of loss of appetite and weight loss showed increases in body weight and muscle mass after taking Ninjin'yoeito. Ninjin'yoeito was found to be a potentially effective treatment option for physical frailty in patients with dementia.
