Protective Roles of Xijiao Dihuang Tang on Coronary Artery Injury in Kawasaki Disease.
Article in Cardiovascular drugs and therapy, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
purposeXijiao Dihuang Tang (XJDHT) is a classical formula of traditional Chinese medicine constituted of Cornu Bubali, Rehmannia glutinosa (Gaertn.) DC., Paeonia lactiflora Pall., and Paeonia suffruticosa Andrews. It was first mentioned in the medical classic "Beiji Qianjin Yaofang" written by Simiao Sun in Tang Dynasty. It shows very strong antipyretic and anticoagulant effects and has been clinically applied to treat various type of blood loss, purple and black spots, heat stroke, and glossitis. Kawasaki disease (KD) is considered as a kind of acute febrile illness in children with systemic vasculitis as the main lesions. The aim of this research is to clarify whether XJDHT can play a protective role in KD.
methodsA mouse model of Candida albicans water-soluble fraction (CAWS)-induced coronary arteritis and a KD cell model with tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α induction were employed to investigate the potential effect and mechanism of XJDHT on coronary artery injury in KD.
resultsData showed that XJDHT remarkably alleviated the coronary artery injury of KD mice, as evidenced by reduced inflammation and downregulated expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL)-1β and TNF-α. In vitro investigation showed that XJDHT could promote cell proliferation, inhibit cell apoptosis, and improve mitochondrial functions. Subsequent studies demonstrated that XJDHT rescued endothelial cell injury by PI3K/Akt-NFκB signaling pathway. Component analysis of XJDHT detected thirty-eight chemically active ingredients, including paeoniflorin, albiflorin, and paeoniflorigenone, which in in vitro experiments exhibited significant rescue effects on TNF-α-mediated endothelial cell injury.
conclusionOur findings demonstrated that XJDHT mitigated coronary artery injury of KD through suppressing endothelial cell damage via PI3K/Akt-NFκB signaling.
