Effective Treatment of Adult Parasomnias with Keishikaryukotsuboreito in Four Cases.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Parasomnias are undesirable behaviors or experiences during sleep that manifest clinically as abnormal behavior, emotions, and nightmares. We herein report four elderly parasomnia patients who were successfully treated for abnormal nocturnal behaviors, including rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorders, with Keishikaryukotsuboreito (KRB), a Japanese traditional herbal medicine. KRB resolved nocturnal violent behaviors and sleep walking without any adverse effects. In one patient, occipital dominant spike-wave complexes induced by 3-Hz photic stimulation were reduced after KRB treatment, suggesting that KRB has inhibitory effects on brain irritability. KRB may represent a safe therapeutic option for treating parasomnias in the elderly.
