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: Jeoryeong-tang (JRT) was first recorded in Methods: Mice were treated with 3.0 % or 2.5 % DSS for 6 days to induce colitis and JRT extract was then administered at a low level of 40 mg/kg (JRT-L), a medium level of 120 mg/kg (JRT-M), or a high level of 400 mg/kg (JRT-H) once a day. During the administration period, clinical disease activity index (DAI) reflecting survival rate, diarrhea, bloody stool, and weight loss rate was evaluated. The degree of colonic tissue damage was scored and evaluated through hematoxylin and eosin staining. Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), p-STAT3 and p-ERK expression were examined with immunohistochemistry. Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-6 and -1β levels were analyzed using a cytokine enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results: Among mice treated with 3.0 % DSS, JRT-M significantly improved the survival rate compared to other treatments as a result of observation for a total of 14 days. While, in the 2.5 % DSS-treated model, the average body weights of mice in both of JRT-M and JRT-H groups were significantly higher than that in the DSS group. In addition, the JRT-M group showed significantly lower DAI score than that in the DSS group. As a result of evaluating the extent of colon tissue damage, JRT-M and JRT-H groups both showed significantly lower inflammatory index and thinner muscular externa thickness than the DSS group. The expression of COX-2, p-STAT3 and p-ERK in colon tissue were significantly suppressed in JRT-M and JRT-H groups compared to that in the DSS group. Moreover, serum TNF-α was significantly suppressed in the JRT-H group compared to that in the DSS group. Conclusions: Jeoryeong-tang has a promising therapeutic potential for treating IBD through its anti-inflammatory properties. Findings of this study suggest that JRT could be a valuable candidate for further clinical investigations in the treatment of IBD.
