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

Purpose: The pro-inflammatory response triggered by influenza viruses can contribute to viral pneumonia, even death. The effect and mechanism of BaBaoWuDanYaoMo (BB) against influenza virus remains obscure. To predict its therapeutic targets via network pharmacology and verify the therapeutic effect and the mechanism of BB against influenza virus in vitro and in vivo. Material and Methods: The potential active and underlying mechanism of BB in the treatment of influenza virus was predicted through network pharmacological strategies and Molecular Docking. The protective and anti-inflammatory effects of BB were determined by cytopathic effect (CPE), quantitative real-time PCR, mitochondrial membrane potentials and Western blotting assay in vitro. BALB/c mice were intranasally infected with A/PR/8/34 (H1N1) (PR8) and orally administrated BB (500 mg/kg, 250 mg/kg and 125 mg/kg) or oseltamivir daily. The normal group was orally administrated PBS for 5 days. Lung indexes, histological changes and cytokines were determined on the 6th day. Results: BB could effectively inhibit A/Puerto Rico/8/1934 (H1N1), A/GZ/GIRD07/09 (H1N1), A/HK/Y280/97 (H9N2) and A/Aichi/68 (H3N2) with IC Conclusion: BB has a protective effect on PR8-induced acute lung injury (ALI) probably via inhibition of apoptosis process and interfering with TLR3, p38 MAPK and PI3K-AKT signaling pathways. This study provided a potential treatment for influenza from BB, and network pharmacology provided a strategy to explore active components and mechanism of TCMs against influenza virus infection.
