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

Edgeworthia gardneri (Wall.) Meisn., a member of the genus Edgeworthia in the family Thymelaeaceae, has long been applied as an edible and medicinal plant in China. E. gardneria has a hypoglycemic effect and is used to prepare daily drinks for the prevention and treatment of diabetes. However, the hypoglycemic substances involved remain unknown. The present study aimed to screen the α-glucosidase-inhibitors of E. gardneri and analyze its chemical profile using a ultraperformance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS) method. As a result, the ethyl acetate fraction (EAF) had significant α-glucosidase-inhibitory and antioxidant activities but did not show an α-amylase-inhibitory activity. A total of 67 compounds were identified in the EAF by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS analysis; among them, 48 compounds were first discovered in the genus Edgeworthia. Additionally, five flavonoids, namely, isoorintin, secoisolaricirinol, tiliroside, chrysin, and kaempferol, had α-glucosidase-inhibitory activities. Rutin had a α-amylase-inhibitory activity. Daphnoretin, a kind of coumarin, has α-glucosidase and α-amylase-inhibitory activities. These findings enrich the chemical library of E. gardneria. EAF has a selective α-glucosidase-inhibitory activity, and flavonoids and coumarins may be the active components of EAF. E. gardneria has important value for developing multiple-target hypoglycemic drugs.
