Efficacy of Yiqi Wenyang Huoxue method in treating adult bronchial asthma: A protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
Article in Medicine, 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
backgroundBronchial asthma (BA) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airway, which has the characteristics of recurrent attacks and difficult to cure. Glucocorticoid and bronchodilator are the primary treatment drugs for asthma. Although the treatment has made some progress, the control status is still not ideal. According to clinical reports, the Yi-qi Wen-yang Huo-xue method (YQWYHXM) of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is safe and effective in the treatment of BA, but there is not enough evidence to prove it. Based on it, we conducted this systematic evaluation.
methodsEight databases and Clinical trial registries (Embase, Cochrane, PubMed, CNKI, CBM, Wanfang, VIP, China Clinical Trial Registry and Clinical Trails) were searched from the establishment of those until January 22, 2021 with the following terms for retrieval: BS, TCM, Chinese medicinal herb, Chinese herbal medicine and randomized controlled trial. Data analysis was performed by 2 researchers using RevMan 5.3 and SATA 16.0 separately from the Cochrane Collaboration.
resultsThis study will be able to provide definitive evidence to clarify all the suspicions we seek, confirming the effectiveness of YQWYHXM in the treatment of adults with BA.
conclusionThis study will prove that YQWYHXM is a safe and effective TCM adjuvant therapy for BA. REGISTRATION: Efficacy of Yiqi Wenyang Huoxue method in Treating Adult Bronchial Asthma.
