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: Stable angina pectoris (SAP), as a common type of coronary heart disease (CHD), is characterized by transient retrosternal squeezing pain or suffocation induced by exercise, mood swings, or other stress. Most patients with stable angina pectoris do not benefit from interventional therapy and medication, so optimizing treatment plans has important clinical significance. Jiuxin pill is a Chinese patent medicine developed by Huatuo Chinese Medicine Co. Ltd. (Bozhou, China) to relieve the symptoms of stable angina pectoris (SAP). However, there is a lack of evidence support from high-quality clinical studies. Methods: In this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter clinical trial, 170 patients with SAP were recruited from 11 centers in China. The patients were randomized to either the treatment group (Jiuxin pill, 2 pills, bid) or the control group (Jiuxin pill simulant, 2 pills, bid) without changing the original conventional western medicine. The trial was set up with a run-in period of 7 days, a treatment period of 28 ± 2 days, and a follow-up period of 28 ± 2 days. Total exercise time (TED) in the treadmill test and Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ) scores were set as the main efficacy outcomes, and the 1-minute heart rate recovery (HRR1), metabolic equivalents (METs), maximum ST segment depression, Borg perceived exertion after exercise, the average number of angina attacks per week, usage of nitroglycerin, drug withdrawal and reduction rate, information scoring of four diagnostic methods in traditional Chinese medicine and incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events were set as the secondary efficacy outcomes. Adverse events were monitored throughout the trial. Discussion: In China, the use of Chinese patent medicine in the treatment of stable angina pectoris is more common. This trial evaluated the efficacy and safety of the Jiuxin pill in the treatment of patients with SAP, and the trial results provide high-quality research evidence for its clinical application. Trial Registration: This trial has been registered in the China Clinical Trial Registry on 11 June 2022 (Registration No.: ChiCTR2200060780, https://www.chictr.org.cn/showproj.html?proj=172352).
