Entropy analysis and grey cluster analysis of multiple indexes of 5 kinds of genuine medicinal materials.
Article in Scientific reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
5 kinds of genuine medicinal materials, including Diding (Latin name: Corydalis bungeana Turcz), Purslane (Latin name: Portulaca oleracea L.), straw sandal board (Latin name: Hoya carnosa (L.f.) R. Br), June snow (Latin name: Serissa japonica (Thunb.) Thunb.), pine vine rattan (Latin name: Lycopodiastrum casuarinoides (Spring) Holub. [Lycopodium casuarinoides Spring]), were selected as the research objects. The combustion heat, thermo gravimetric parameters, and fat content, calcium content, trace element content, ash content of 5 kinds of genuine medicinal materials were measured. The combustion heat, differential thermal gravimetric analysis, fat content, calcium content, trace elements content, and ash content of 5 kinds of genuine medicinal materials were used to build a systematic multi-index evaluation system by gray pattern recognition and grey correlation coefficient cluster analysis, which can make up for the gaps in this area and provide scientific basis and research significance for the study of genuine medicinal materials quality. The results showed that the order of combustion heat of 5 kinds of genuine medicinal materials, including Diding, Purslane, straw sandal board, June snow, pine vine rattan, was Diding > June snow > straw sandal board > Purslane > pine vine rattan, the order of fat content (%) of 5 kinds of genuine medicinal materials was straw sandal board > Diding > pine vine rattan > June snow > Purslane, the order of calcium content (%) was pine vine rattan > June snow > Purslane > straw sandal board > Diding, the order of ash content was June snow > Purslane > straw sandal board > pine vine rattan > Diding. From the analysis of thermogravimetric analysis results and thermogravimetric combustion stability, the order of combustion stability of 5 kinds of genuine medicinal materials was June snow > pine Vine rattan > straw sandal board > Diding > Portulaca oleracea. The order of the content of 12 trace elements in 5 kinds of genuine medicinal materials, in terms of trace element content, June snow contains the highest trace elements in all samples. According to combustion heat, combustibility (combustion stability of genuine medicinal materials), fat, calcium, ash, trace element content, the comprehensive evaluation results of multi-index analysis constructed by gray correlation degree, gray correlation coefficient factor analysis, and gray hierarchical cluster analysis showed that the comprehensive evaluation multi-index order of 5 genuine medicinal materials, including Diding, Purslane, straw sandal board, June snow and pine vine rattan, was June snow > straw sandal board > Diding > Purslane > pine vine rattan. Therefore, the comprehensive evaluation results of the quality of genuine medicinal materials selected in this study were June snow the best, followed by straw sandal board. This research has important theoretical and practical significance for the multi-index measurement and comprehensive evaluation of genuine medicinal materials, and can provide scientific basis and research significance for the research of multi-index quality control of genuine medicinal material.
