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

purposeTo study the effect of Qianliekang tablets on the clinical efficacy, immune function, and inflammatory factor levels in the prostatic fluid of elderly chronic prostatitis (CP) patients.

methods106 elderly CP patients admitted to our hospital between June 2018 and June 2020 were recruited as the study cohort and randomly divided into a regular group and an observation group. The regular group was administered tamsulosin hydrochloride, and the observation group was administered a combination of tamsulosin hydrochloride and Qianliekang tablets. After a course of treatment, the clinical efficacy, the changes in the patients' symptoms, the function scores, the prostate ultrasound indicators, the changes in the T lymphocyte subsets, and the inflammatory factor expression levels in the prostatic fluid before and after the treatment were measured and compared in the two groups. The occurrence of adverse effects during the treatment was statistically analyzed.

resultsThe overall effectiveness rate in the observation group was superior to the overall effectiveness rate in the regular group (94.34% vs. 75.47%, P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in the patient clinical data before the treatment in the two groups (P > 0.05). After the treatment, the CD

conclusionQianliekang tablets can improve the curative effect in elderly CP patients, enhance their immune function, and reduce the inflammatory factor expression levels in their prostatic fluid.
