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
Objective: This study evaluates the therapeutic effects of the Yangxin Huoxue Formula in the management of stable angina pectoris associated with Qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome, co-occurring with anxiety and depressive disorders. The primary objective is to determine its efficacy in enhancing cardiac function and reducing emotional symptoms. Methods: A randomized, single-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial was conducted with 94 individuals with stable angina pectoris. Participants were randomly allocated to either a treatment group receiving Yangxin Huoxue Formula granules or a placebo group receiving placebo granules, administered twice daily over a 12-week period. Primary outcome measures included assessments of cardiac function, angina frequency, PHQ-9 and GAD-7 scores, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome improvements, and inflammatory markers. Results: The treatment group exhibited significantly greater improvements in cardiac output and reductions in peripheral vascular resistance compared to the placebo group. Additionally, a significant decrease in the frequency and duration of angina episodes was observed in the treatment group. Improvements in TCM syndrome scores and GAD-7 scores were also notably superior in the treatment group. No significant adverse reactions were recorded during the safety assessment of the treatment group. Conclusion: The Yangxin Huoxue Formula demonstrates efficacy in improving cardiac function, alleviating symptoms of anxiety and depression, reducing inflammatory mediator release, and enhancing quality of life in individuals with stable angina pectoris. The treatment was well-tolerated, confirming both its safety and therapeutic effectiveness.
