Expression of Th17/Treg Cells in Peripheral Blood and Related Cytokines of Patients with Ulcerative Colitis of Different Syndrome Types and Correlation with the Disease.
Article in Evidence-based complementary and alternative medicine : eCAM, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 6 papers.
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 explore the expression of helper
methodsFrom January 2018 to December 2019, 53 patients diagnosed with UC in our hospital were selected. According to their medical syndromes, they were divided into the damp-heat internal accumulation group (
resultsThe peripheral blood Th17 cell ratio and Th17/Treg ratio of the damp-heat internal accumulation and spleen-kidney yang deficiency group were higher than those of the control group; the Treg cell ratio was lower than that of the control group; the peripheral blood Th17 cell ratio and Th17/Treg ratio of the damp-heat internal accumulation group were higher those of the spleen-kidney yang deficiency group; and the proportion of Treg cells was lower than that of the spleen-kidney yang deficiency group (
conclusionThere are differences in the expression of peripheral blood Th17/Treg cells and related cytokines among UC patients with different syndromes, and the damp-heat content is the most significant. The higher the ratio of Th17 cells in peripheral blood and the degree of Th17/Treg imbalance, the lower the ratio of Treg cells, and the more severe the condition of UC patients, which can provide a preliminary quantitative basis for the TCM classification and severity of the diagnosis of UC.
