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

"Xinyi" (Magnolia biondii Pampan., Magnolia denudata Desr., and Magnolia sprengeri Pampan.) is a traditional Chinese medicine listed in the Pharmacopoeia of the People's Republic of China. "Xinyi" has anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic, antioxidant, and antibacterial effects, and has significant curative effects in the treatment of acute and chronic rhinitis, allergic rhinitis, and other rhinitis symptoms. However, comparative quality assessments of these three species are scarce. This study investigated the variations in the volatile oil content and composition in the flower buds of M. biondii, M. denudata, and M. sprengeri using the gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and the microscopic analysis at different growth stages. This study indicated the following findings. (1) The volatile oil levels varied among the species, with M. biondii, M. denudata, and M. sprengeri peaking, respectively. In addition, the cell density was positively correlated with the oil deposition. (2) The content of 1,8-Cineole varied significantly, where M. biondii exhibited the high levels at 14.50% at stage 4 and 16.40% at stage 5; M. denudata peaked at 17.87% at stage 5; and M. sprengeri was 1.07% at stage 3. Moreover, M. biondii and M. denudata from Hubei exceeded the Pharmacopoeia's 1% standard, whereas M. sprengeri did not. These findings underscore the need to improve the herb production standards and provide valuable data for assessing the therapeutic potential of these "Xinyi" species.
