Effectiveness and safety of Suhuang Zhike capsule as adjuvant treatment for acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: a systematic review and Meta-analysis.

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
objectiveTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of Suhuang Zhike capsule in the adjuvant treatment of acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD).
methodsThe database including PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure Database, China Science and Technology Journal Database, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database and Wanfang Data was searched. The retrieval time was from database establishment to May 2021. Randomized controlled trial (RCT) of Suhuang zhike capsule adjuvant treatment for AECOPD was included. The quality of the studies was independently evaluated and cross-checked by two reviewers, and Meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan5.3 software.
resultsThirteen RCT results were included with a total sample number of 1195 cases, including 597 in the experimental group and 598 in the control group. The results showed that Suhuang zhike capsule adjuvant treatment of AECOPD could improve the total clinical effect rate compared with conventional treatment. Suhuang zhike capsule adjuvant treatment could improve forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV), FEV/FVC, peak expiratory flow (PEF) and other pulmonary function indexes; decrease C-reactive protein (CRP), white blood cells, neutrophils and other infectious indicators; besides, the 1-year recurrence rate of the disease was decreased (all 0.05).
conclusionsSuhuang Zhike capsule can improve the lung function and clinical efficacy of AECOPD, thus increasing the exercise endurance, and reducing the infection and recurrence rate in AECOPD patients.
