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

objectiveThis study aimed to explore the active components and potential mechanism of Tanre Qing Injection (TRQI) in the treatment of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) using network pharmacology, molecular docking, and animal experiments.

methodsThe targets of active ingredients were identified using the TCMSP and Swiss Target Prediction databases. The targets associated with ARDS were obtained from the GeneCards database, Mala card database, and Open Targets Platform. A Protein-protein Interaction network (PPI) was constructed, and the core targets were subjected to Gene Ontology (GO) function annotation and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis. Finally, molecular docking technology and a mouse model of lipopolysaccharide-induced acute lung injury validated the experimental results.

resultsThe results of network pharmacology showed the active components of TRQI in the treatment of ARDS to be baicalin, chenodeoxycholic acid, oroxylin-A, and ursodeoxycholic acid, and the core targets to be TP53, ESR1, AKT1, JUN, and SRC. KEGG analysis showed 181 signaling pathways, primarily including the IL-17 signaling pathway, endocrine resistance, lipid metabolism, and atherosclerosis. Molecular docking results demonstrated that baicalin, chenodeoxycholic acid, oroxylin-A, and ursodeoxycholic acid in TRQI exhibited the strongest affinity for TP53, ESR1, and SRC. Furthermore, the results of animal experiments have indicated TRQI to have a significant inhibitory effect on inflammatory factors TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6, and effectively alleviate the pathological damage of ARDS to lung tissue.

conclusionTRQI may exert its therapeutic effects on ARDS through multiple targets and pathways, providing a research basis for its clinical application and further development.
