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: Renshen Baidu Powder (RBP) is a famous classic compound of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and is commonly used for treating ulcerative colitis (UC). However, the pharmacological mechanism of RBP in treating UC remains unclear. This study investigates the possible mechanism of RBP for UC treatment by network pharmacological analysis and rat validation. Methods: First, the main chemical constituents of RBP were identified using ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography quadrupole Orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap-HRMS). Then, we obtained targets of identified compounds from the SwissTargetPrediction database and targets associated with UC from GeneCards database. Furthermore, Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) were used to analyze the metabolism-related signaling pathways affected by RBP. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was used to observe the pathological change of colon in UC rats after treating RBP, and terminal deoxynucleotidyl-transferase (TdT)-mediated dUTP Nick end labeling (TUNEL) staining was used to detect apoptosis after RBP treatment. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was employed to evaluate cytokine levels of TNF- Results: We found a total of 24 main compounds and 329 potential targets related to UC. According to KEGG results, 3 main pathways were identified as responsible for UC, including PI3K-AKT, HIF-1, and VEGF signaling pathway. Animal experiments showed that RBP treatment significantly attenuated colon damage in rats with UC. Mechanistically, RBP could inhibit PI3K/AKT/NF- Conclusions: This study demonstrated that RBP may exert anti-inflammatory and antiapoptotic therapeutic benefits in UC by regulating the PI3K/AKT/NF-
