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
Infected bone defects (IBDs) are the common condition in the clinical practice of orthopaedics. Although surgery and anti-infective medicine are the firstly chosen treatments, in many cases, patients experience a prolonged bone union process after anti-infective treatment. Epimedium-Curculigo herb pair (ECP) has been proved to be effective for bone repair. However, the mechanisms of ECP in IBDs are insufficiency. In this study, Effect of ECP in IBDs was verified by micro-CT and histological examination. Qualitative and quantitative analysis of the main components in ECP containing medicated serum (ECP-CS) were performed. The network pharmacological approaches were then applied to predict potential pathways for ECP associated with bone repair. In addition, the mechanism of ECP regulating LncRNA MALAT1/miRNA-34a-5p/SMAD2 signalling axis was evaluated by molecular biology experiments. In vivo experiments indicated that ECP could significantly promote bone repair. The results of the chemical components analysis and the pathway identification revealed that TGF-β signalling pathway was related to ECP. The results of in vitro experiments indicated that ECP-CS could reverse the damage caused by LPS through inhibiting the expressions of LncRNA MALAT1 and SMAD2, and improving the expressions of miR-34a-5p, ALP, RUNX2 and Collagen type І in osteoblasts significantly. This research showed that ECP could regulate the TGF-β/SMADs signalling pathway to promote bone repair. Meanwhile, ECP could alleviate LPS-induced bone loss by modulating the signalling axis of LncRNA MALAT1/miRNA-34a-5p/ SMAD2 in IBDs.
