The effects of modified Buzhong Yiqi decoction combined with Gangtai ointment on the wound healing and anal function in circumferential mixed hemorrhoid patients.
Article in American journal of translational research, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 investigate the effects of modified Buzhong Yiqi decoction combined with Gangtai ointment on the wound healing and anal function of circumferential mixed hemorrhoid patients.
methodsPatients (n=120) with circumferential mixed hemorrhoids were recruited as the research cohort. All the patients underwent surgical treatment and were randomly divided into a control group and a research group. The control group was administered chitosan hydrogels for wound healing, once a day. The research group was administered modified Buzhong Yiqi decoction (1 dose a day, orally) combined with Kangtai ointment for external application (twice a day, for two consecutive weeks). We compared the two groups' effective rates, their pain indexes, their perianal edema scores, their quality of life scores, their wound healing times, their pain resolution times, their anal functions, their wound exudate scores, and their adverse reactions.
resultsCompared with the control group, the research group had a higher effective rate (P<0.01), a lower pain index, and a lower perianal edema score (both P<0.001), a higher quality of life score (P<0.001), a shorter wound healing time, a shorter pain resolution time, and fewer adverse reactions than the control group (both P<0.001). The lengths of the anal canals in the research group were shorter than they were in the control group (P<0.01), and the resting pressure, maximum diastolic blood pressure, and maximum systolic blood pressure were higher than they were in the control group (all P<0.001). The wound exudate scores at 7 and 14 days after the treatment in the research group were lower than they were in the control group (all P<0.001). There were fewer adverse reactions in the research group than there were in the control group (P<0.05).
conclusionModified Buzhong Yiqi decoction combined with Gangtai ointment for patients with circumferential mixed hemorrhoids has good short-term efficacy. It helps to promote wound healing, improves anal function, and does not increase the incidence of adverse reactions. It is worthy of promotion and application.
