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

Taiju and Duoju are products of Hangbaiju (HJ) obtained during different collection periods, and they have been commonly used as ingredients in tea beverages and dietary traditional Chinese medicine. This study reports an integrated strategy based on metabolomics, bioinformatics and molecular docking to further explore the effect of the harvesting period on the metabolic profile and clinical efficacy of HJ. Firstly, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Q-TOF/MS) were employed for non-targeted metabolomics profiling of essential oils and flavonoids. A sequential window acquisition of all theoretical fragment-ion spectra information-dependent acquisition (SWATH-IDA) bi-directionally verified (SIBDV) method was developed that integrates the advantages of both SWATH and IDA in characterizing flavonoids. Chemometric methods were then used to screen potential chemical markers. Furthermore, HJ is effective in hepatoprotective functions. Therefore, hepatocellular-carcinoma-related differentially expressed genes were obtained using bioinformatics, and the corresponding proteins were molecularly docked with diagnostic chemical markers. In total, 78 volatile oils and 63 flavonoids were tentatively identified. The results allowed the selection of 11 metabolites (5 volatile oils and 6 flavonoids), which are nominated as novel markers for material authentication of Taiju and Duoju. Additionally, two proteins associated with hepatoma were screened using bioinformatics. All six flavonoid markers with binding energies of <-5 kcal mol
