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

objectiveThis research explores and analyzes the protective effect of the mixed Chinese herbs Qingfei Huatan decoction on the pulmonary and immunological functions in children with severe pneumonia.

methods120 children with severe pneumonia hospitalized from May 2018 to May 2020 were enrolled in the study and randomly placed into an observation group or a control group (n=60 in each group). The control group was administered conventional treatment, and the observation group was administered the mixed Chinese herbs Qingfei Huatan decoction in addition to the treatment administered to the control group. The therapeutic efficacy, the changes in pulmonary function, the serum inflammatory levels, and the peripheral blood T lymphocyte subsets were compared between the two groups.

resultsThe total effective treatment rate in the observation group was critically superior to the total effective treatment rate in the control group (

conclusionThe mixed Chinese herbs Qingfei Huatan decoction and the routine treatment combination has a good clinical effectiveness in children with severe pneumonia. It can effectively promote the pulmonary function of children. Its effect may be correlated with the suppression of inflammation in the body and the improvement of the immunological function in children.
