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

Ling Gui Zhu Gan decoction (LGZGD) is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) prescription that is widely used in cardiovascular disease clinical prevention and treatment with high efficacy. Recent studies have shown that LGZGD can also be used in hyperlipidemia (HL) intervention, but its pharmacodynamic material basis and its mechanisms remains unclear. This study aimed to reveal the protective effects of LGZGD on HL, elucidate the pharmacodynamic material basis. The hamster HL model was established by high-fat diet. Thereafter, non-targeted metabolomics and quantitative lipidomics were established for screening differential metabolites and pathways. Finally, the mechanisms were elucidated based on network pharmacology to screen for shared targets, which were computational selected by molecular docking. After four weeks of LGZGD administration, the TC, TG, and liver index levels decreased notably and hepatocyte injury was obviously reduced. The Multi-omics identified 62 differential metabolites and 144 differential lipids, respectively. The network pharmacology study predicted 343, 85, and 974 relevant targets from LGZGD components, HL, differential metabolites and lipids, respectively. Eventually, seven core targets were selected by molecular docking. Six key components in LGZGD, including genistein and naringenin, could play a therapeutic role in HL by regulating seven pathways, including HMGCR and PPARA. This comprehensive strategy provides a promising example and approach for further research on TCM for the treatment of lipid metabolic diseases.
