Oxymatrine for inflammatory bowel disease in preclinical studies: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Frontiers in medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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: Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) is a chronic, idiopathic inflammatory disorder of the intestines. Oxymatrine (OMT) is a naturally active substance found in the desiccated roots of Methods: Conduct a systematic search in the PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane, and Medline databases. Using SYRCLE's risk of bias tool to assess the bias risk and quality of the included studies. For some data presented as figures, Web Plot Digitizer 4.2 software was used to extract it. STATA 16.0 was selected for the final meta-analysis. Results: After rigorous literature screening, 12 studies were included. The data analysis results indicated that the disease activity index (DAI), histopathological score (HS), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor- Conclusion: Meta-analysis suggests oxymatrine positively affects IBD animal models. This provides new insights for the clinical treatment of inflammatory bowel disease.
