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

context

objectiveThis meta-analysis assessed the effects of ABB root extract (ABBRE) on osteoporotic rats and provides a rationale for future clinical studies.

methodsSearches were conducted in seven different Chinese and English databases, and the search period was from their establishment to January 2024. This study was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42023418917). Selected research regarding the ABBRE treatment of osteoporotic rats, and the corresponding research has distinctly reported outcomes, and the data on the bone mineral density (BMD), bone histomorphometrics, biomechanical parameters, and bone biochemical markers of osteoporotic rats can be extracted.

resultsThrough screening, 11 studies met the eligibility requirements for inclusion, in which 222 animals were studied. The treatment group with ABBRE exhibited increased bone mineral density (standardized mean difference [SMD] = 1.64, 95% CI = 0.52 to 2.77). Based on subgroup analysis, the greatest increase in bone mineral density was observed when the dose of ABBRE was ≤ 400 mg/kg/day and the duration of treatment was ≤ 12 weeks.

conclusionsABBRE is a phytomedicine that can effectively promote the enhancement of bone mineral density and ease osteoporosis. It can be developed into a new alternative therapy by conducting experiments and clinical studies on larger samples.
