Acyclovir Combined with Naloxone in the Treatment of Viral Encephalitis: A Meta-Analysis.
Synthesis in Journal of healthcare engineering, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: The aim of this study was to systematically evaluate the efficacy and prognosis of acyclovir combined with naloxone in the treatment of patients with viral encephalitis (VE). Methods: PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, CNKI, and WanFang Data were searched for relevant literature published between 2000 and 2021. Meta-analysis was performed using Stata16.0 software. The treatment group was treated with acyclovir combined with naloxone, and the control group was treated with acyclovir alone. Results: A total of 12 studies with 986 participants were included. Compared with the control group, the treatment group could not only significantly improve the treatment response rate (OR = 5.53, 95% CI: 3.50, 8.74; Conclusion: A combination of acyclovir and naloxone can reduce the inflammatory response and shorter the time to symptom relief and disappearance, which is worthy of clinical promotion.
