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

The hot-cold concept is the basis of various traditional medical systems that is expressed under distinct headings, such as Mizaj and the four humors in Persian Medicine, Yin and Yang in Traditional Chinese Medicine, and Tridoṣa ('Vāta', 'Pitta', and 'Kapha') in Ayurveda. Conventional medicine is facing a growing demand for personalized medicine. Therefore, clear and comprehensible information on the foundations and descriptions of traditional medicines, which take the personalized approach toward maintaining health, prevention and treatment of the diseases, may help to accelerate this process. This chapter will explain the physiologic basis of the hot-cold theory in traditional medical systems via a review of recent studies.
