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 investigate the therapeutic effect of Yiqi Jianpi Tongqiao (YJT) formula
methodsAn allergic rhinitis mouse model was established to observe changes in rhinitis symptoms, nasal mucosal morphology, and serum indicators after administering the YJT formula. The TCMSP, GeneCards, OMIM, and DisGeNET databases were used to screen for the active ingredients, action targets, and disease targets of the YJT formula. The Cytoscape software was used to construct a network of the active ingredients and action targets. The protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was used to predict hub genes. The corresponding active compounds with the hub genes' highest oral bioavailability (OB) values were identified, followed by molecular docking analysis.
resultsAnimal experiments demonstrated that the YJT formula reduced rhinitis symptoms (nasal itching, runny nose, and face scratching) in allergic rhinitis mice, as well as decreased nasal mucosal inflammatory reactions and serum inflammatory indicators (histamine, OVAspecific IgE, IL-1β levels). Furthermore, 63 active components and 101 potential indicator targets of the YJT formula were identified, along with 5 hub genes (IL6, AKT1, IL1B, VEGFA, and PTGS2), and the corresponding active compounds with the highest OB values were quercetin, aloe-emodin, and denudanolide b. Molecular docking results revealed the binding energy between quercetin, aloe-emodin, denudanolide b and 5 hub genes (IL6, AKT1, IL1B, VEGFA, and PTGS2) were -5.78 to -10.22 kcal/mol, the binding energy between dexamethasone and 5 hub genes were -6.3 to -9.7 kcal/mol. In addition, GO and KEGG analysis suggested significant enrichment of these genes in biological processes such as response to lipopolysaccharide, response to molecule of bacterial origin, and response to reactive oxygen species, as well as signaling pathways like AGE-RAGE signaling pathway in diabetic complications, Lipid and atherosclerosis, and IL-17 signaling pathway.
conclusionThe YJT formula has therapeutic effects in an allergic rhinitis mouse model, with the main active components being quercetin, aloe-emodin, and denudanolide b, and the key targets being IL6, AKT1, IL1B, VEGFA, and PTGS2, involving multiple signaling pathways.
