Effectiveness and Safety of Treating Negative Emotions after PCI from the Perspective of Qi and Blood: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Review in Evidence-based complementary and alternative medicine : eCAM, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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: Many patients undergoing PCI have been reported to suffer from psychological distress and negative emotions. Several lines of evidence have indicated that PCI patients with negative emotions are particularly vulnerable to myocardial reperfusion injury when they face psychological challenges. As proven by clinical trials and research, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has certain advantages in alleviating psychological symptoms in PCI patients. The level of evidence for TCM is not yet high. There is no existing systematic review to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of TCM in post-PCI patients. Methods: PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI, VIP, Wanfang Database, and CBM were searched to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that treated negative emotions after PCI using qi and blood cotherapy. The search period was from database inception to March 1, 2022. After applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria to the RCTs, research quality evaluation and data extraction were conducted, and a meta-analysis of the articles was performed using Revman 5.3 and Stata 12.1. Results: A total of 14 RCTs involving 1314 patients were included. Meta-analysis results indicated that compared with the anti-anxiety and depression medications group, the qi-blood harmony group was more effective in clinical outcomes (RR = 1.19, 95% CI (1.13, 1.25), Conclusion: Treating negative emotions after PCI based on the idea of "harmonization of qi and blood" can effectively improve the clinical efficacy, the stability of angina pectoris and the degree of patient satisfaction, and can reduce the frequency of angina attacks and the incidence of adverse events. There was no significant difference between the two groups for reductions in the HAMA and HAMD scores. However, more high-quality, large sample, multicentre RCTs are still needed for further verification.
