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

Natural flavonoids have been shown to have many pharmacological activities. Efficient and continuous enrichment of total flavonoids with high content and low mobile phase usage from complex natural products is greatly needed at the moment. In this study, a new continuous chromatography system (CCS) with 6 zones and the 18-column dynamic tandem connection technique was developed and used to enrich total flavonoids from Epimedium koreanum Nakai (EKN). The 18 columns were divided into 6 zones, and the principle of a dynamic series of three columns was adopted for each zone to achieve continuous automatic separation and enrichment of total flavonoids under the control of a logic control valve. The CCS separation conditions were established based on single-column chromatography and a theoretical calculation model of the CCS. By means of the self-designed device and method, 485.11±3.16 g of total flavonoids were isolated from 16.2 kg of EKN. It is worth noting that the total content of 18 types of flavonoids in the samples enriched by the CCS was increased from 2.84±0.07% to 88.29±0.22%, the total recovery rate was 92.20±0.38%, and the RSD of each flavonoid was less than 5.0%. Furthermore, compared with single-column chromatography filled with the same volume of chromatography filler, the entire process saved about 2/3 of the mobile phase usage. In summary, the developed device and method could efficiently and continuously enrich total flavonoids from EKN with high-content and low mobile phase usage and would have a wide application prospect in the separation and enrichment of natural products.
