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

Background: Qiguiyin decoction (QGYD) is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and its combined application with levofloxacin (LVFX) has been confirmed effective in the clinical treatment of multidrug-resistant Materials and Methods: Pulmonary infections were induced in rats by MDR PA. The changes in pharmacokinetics-pharmacodynamics (PK-PD) parameters of LVFX after combined with QGYD were investigated in MDR PA-induced rats. Subsequently, the correlation between PK and PD was analyzed and PK-PD models were established to elucidate the relationship between QGYD-induced alterations in LVFX metabolism and its sensitization to LVFX. Antibody chip technology was used to detect the levels of inflammatory factors, suggesting the relationship between the beneficial effect of immune regulation and the sensitization of QGYD. Results: QGYD significantly enhanced the therapeutic efficacy of LVFX against MDR PA infection. The combination of QGYD changed the PK parameters of LVFX such as T Conclusion: These findings indicated that QGYD could change the PK-PD behaviors of LVFX and help the body restore immune balance faster. This implied that a potential drug interaction might occur between QGYD and LVFX, leading to improved clinical efficacy when combined.
