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
The Ping-Chong-Jiang-Ni Formula (PCJNF), a compound of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), has demonstrated remarkable clinical effectiveness and is widely utilized in the treatment of endometriosis (EMs). Previous studies have shown that PCJNF inhibits the proliferation and induces the apoptosis of ectopic endometrial stromal cells (EESCs) by modulating the JNK signaling pathway. In our most recent study, published in January 2024, we found that PCJNF effectively alleviates EMs-associated pain by reducing inflammatory mediators, including tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and nerve growth factor (NGF). Furthermore, PCJNF down-regulates the expression of transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1), phosphorylated TRPV1 (p-TRPV1), and protein kinase C (PKC). To further investigate the therapeutic potential of PCJNF, we conducted a comprehensive tandem mass tag (TMT) proteomics analysis, identifying 4984 proteins co-expressed in human EESCs treated with PCJNF and control serum. Based on these findings, this study explored the inhibitory effects of PCJNF on the migration and invasion of EMs cells in vitro. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis of 12 genes revealed a significant upregulation of FER and TRIP13 in ectopic lesions, which was further validated by immunohistochemistry. Given the crucial role of TRIP13 in EMs, we employed small interfering RNA (siRNA) to knock down its expression, observing a marked reduction in the migration and invasion abilities of EMs cells. Conversely, overexpression of TRIP13 using short hairpin RNA (shRNA) enhanced these processes. Additionally, after PCJNF treatment, we observed significant alterations in the expression of migration-and invasion-related proteins, such as vimentin and E-cadherin. In conclusion, these findings suggest that TRIP13 may serve as a potential therapeutic target for EMs and that PCJNF offers a promising new approach for integrating Traditional Chinese Medicine with modern medical treatments.
