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

Objective: This study aimed to ascertain the immuno-inflammatory molecular targets of Xinfeng capsules (XFC) in the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis (AS) based on data mining, network pharmacology, and molecular docking. Methods: The efficacy of XFC in the treatment of AS was assessed by clinical data mining. Network pharmacology was utilized to establish a network of the targets for XFC active ingredients in the treatment of AS. The binding mode and affinity of XFC active ingredients to the key targets for AS were predicted using molecular docking. Results: XFC significantly diminished immuno-inflammatory indicators of AS. In total, 208 targets of XFC were obtained from the TCMSP database and 629 disease targets of AS were screened from the GeneCards database, which were intersected to yield 57 targets of XFC in the treatment of AS. Protein-protein interaction, gene ontology, and Kyoto genome encyclopedia analyses showed that XFC might activate TNF and NF- Conclusions: Collectively, XFC had a significant therapeutic effect on AS. Specifically, the active ingredients of XFC, including quercetin, kaempferol, triptolide, and formononetin, inhibited the inflammatory response in AS by downregulating TNF and PTGS2 in the TNF and NF-
