Volatile components in Yinchenzhufu decoction and their pharmacokinetics after oral administration in rats.
Article in RSC advances, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
In China, Yinchenzhufu decoction (YCZFD) has been used to treat cholestatic liver disease in clinical practice for hundreds of years. Nonvolatile components in YCZFD, their composition, components absorbed in blood, and pharmacokinetic characteristics have been clarified. However, information about its volatile components is limited. The aim of the present study was to identify the components of the volatile oil (VO) of YCZFD, quantify the major volatile components in YCZFD, and reveal their pharmacokinetic characteristics. In YCZFD, 85 components representing 95.36% of the total oil composition were identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Next, 11 highly abundant components were quantified in YCZFD and YCZFD VO. Finally, a sensitive headspace solid-phase dynamic extraction-chromatography-quadruple mass spectrometry method for determining 8 volatile components in rat plasma was established and applied to compare the pharmacokinetics of YCZFD and YCZFD VO after oral administration in rats. These volatile components were rapidly absorbed and eliminated, and they presented highly different exposure levels. The area under the concentration-time curves of some volatile components in YCZFD was higher than that in YCZFD VO. The results showed that the water extract of YCZFD increased the exposure of volatile components. Our study provides valuable information for understanding the potential effective components of YCZFD.
