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

Herba Epimedii, as a traditional Chinese herb, is divided into large and small flower taxa, and can invigorate sexuality and strengthen muscles and bones. Herba Epimedii is rich in flavonoids, which largely contribute to its medicinal benefits. In our previous studies, we have found that the flavonoids content was much more in small than large flower taxa. To further identify molecular mechanisms of flavonoids metabolism in Herba Epimedii, combined metabolome and transcriptomic analyses were performed to profile leaves and flowers. Association analysis revealed that the expression of genes involved in flavonoid biosynthesis showed significant differences between small and large flower taxa. Eleven flavonols significantly increased in small compared to large flower taxa. Moreover, genes encoding O-methyltransferase played crucial roles in flavonoids metabolism by an integrated analysis. Taken together, these data highlight the breeding tendency of small flower taxa to improve the quality of Herba Epimedii.
