Effects of Shaofu Zhuyu decoction on intestinal flora and fibrosis in a mouse model of endometriosis.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Shaofu Zhuyu decoction has been widely used to treat gynecological diseases; however, its mechanism of action in endometriosis remains unclear. We analyzed Shaofu Zhuyu decoction's chemical composition using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. In an endometriosis mouse model, ectopic lesions weight measurements and hematoxylin and eosin staining were used to assess the therapeutic efficacy of Shaofu Zhuyu decoction. Effects on intestinal microflora were analyzed using 16S ribosomal ribonucleic acid sequencing, and impacts on focal fibrosis were analyzed using Masson's trichrome staining. Moreover, fibrosis- and metabolism-related proteins were assessed using immunohistochemistry and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The study identified 157 chemical constituents within Shaofu Zhuyu decoction. Shaofu Zhuyu decoction treatment in mice with endometriosis resulted in a reduction in ectopic lesions weight (
