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

With the aging of population, vascular dementia (VaD) seriously threatens people's health and quality of life. It is of great significance to explore biomarkers of VaD from the perspective of metabolomics and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). Therefore, VaD was divided into kidney deficiency and blood stasis syndrome (KDBS) and non-KDBS according to TCM. Then, some patients received the treatment of Hengqing I (HQI) prescription. The urine of six groups (VaD group, normal group, KDBS group, non-KDBS group, HQI group, and control group) was detected on LC-MS/MS. Multivariate statistical analysis showed that the metabolic profiles of the three comparisons were significantly different. The top analysis-ready molecules of downregulated histamine and upregulated biotin, methionine, pantothenic acid, SAH, histidine, and kaempferol may be the most related metabolites. These putative biomarkers play an important role in the regulation of key metabolic processes linked to VaD. Additionally, pathway analysis showed aminoacyl-tRNA biosynthesis, and amino acids metabolic pathways were highly correlated with the occurrence of VaD. In this present paper, vitamins, amino acids, and their derivatives were selected as the basis for VaD diagnosis and treatment monitoring, and the significance of TCM classification and Hengqing I prescription in the treatment of VaD was discussed.
