Therapeutic efficacy of Chinese patent medicine containing pyrite for fractures: A protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis.
Article in Medicine, 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
backgroundFractures are a condition in which bone continuity is lost or linear deformity occurs. They are a worldwide public health problem and a significant economic burden. The purpose of this study is to analyze the efficacy of Chinese patent medicine containing pyrite (CPMP) through systematic review and meta-analysis of fracture clinical data.
methodsA literature search will be carried out from the inception of CPMP studies to September 2022 using EMBASE, PubMed, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Korean Studies Information Service System, National Digital Science Library, and Oriental Medicine Advanced Searching Integrated System. Randomized controlled trials which include CPMP will be considered as eligible regardless of the type of fracture. After screening the literature, extracting the data, and assessing the risk of bias from the included studies, a meta-analysis will be performed using Review Manager version 5.4.
resultsThis study is expected to provide evidence for the efficacy and safety of CPMP for fractures.
conclusionOur findings will provide evidence to determine whether CPMP can be an effective intervention for patients with fractures, which would expand the possible treatment options.
