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

objectiveTo investigate the effects of Fu Fang Yi Mu Cao (FFYMC) capsules combined with Yiqi Xiaoyu (YX) decoction on persistent lochia after birth.

methodsIn this retrospective analysis, 120 patients with lochia treated in our hospital from January 2014 to October 2020 were enrolled as study subjects. Sixty of each were randomly allocated into the study group (60 cases, treated with FFYMC capsules and YX decoction) and the control group (60 cases, treated with YX decoction). The two groups were compared in terms of efficacy, volume of lochia and changes in Traditional Chinese Medicine Syndrome Score (TCMSS) before and after intervention, and the incidence of adverse reactions.

results(1) The total effective rate in the study group was 100.00%, which was significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.05); (2) The difference in volume of lochia between two groups before the intervention was not statistically significant (P>0.05), and was significantly lower in the study group than in the control group at day 4 and day 7 of the intervention (P<0.05); (3) The difference in TCMSS between two groups before the treatment was not statistically significant (P>0.05). TCMSS was lower in the study group than in the control group after treatment (P<0.05); (4) The decreased height of uterine fundus in the study group was higher than that in the control group at 5 d after treatment (P<0.05); (5) The plasma viscosity in the study group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P<0.05); (6) The total incidence of adverse reactions in the study group was 8.33%, which was not significantly different from the control group which was 11.67% (P>0.05).

conclusionFFYMC capsule and YX decoction could improve the treatment effect for primiparas with lochia in terms of reducing volume of lochia and improving clinical symptoms with high safety.
