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: Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a large subtype of heart failure (HF) characterized by exercise intolerance and reduced quality of life. Studies have shown that traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) combined with conventional Western medicine has a good effect on improving exercise tolerance and quality of life in patients with HFpEF, but the overall quality of evidence is low. This study aimed to determine the safety and efficacy of Yangyin Shuxin (YYSX) decoction in the treatment of HFpEF. Methods: A prospective, single-blind, single-center, randomized controlled clinical study was conducted. 64 patients with HFpEF were randomly assigned to receive oral YYSX decoction (150 ml, twice a day) combined with conventional Western treatment or conventional Western treatment alone at a ratio of 1 : 1. The course of treatment was 2 weeks, and the follow-up was 3 months. The primary outcome was peak oxygen uptake (peak VO Results: 63 patients (31 in the YYSX group and 32 in the control group) were included in the full analysis set. The peak VO Conclusion: The YYSX decoction combined with conventional Western treatment was superior to the conventional Western treatment alone in improving exercise tolerance, quality of life, and cardiopulmonary function of patients with HFpEF. YYSX decoction is safe and may prevent a drop in blood pressure and sodium retention. Trial Registration. Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (www.chictr.org/cn/, No. ChiCTR-IOR-17014206).
