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: Shi-Yang-Xiao lotion (SYXL), due to its anti-inflammatory and antipruritic properties, is widely used in treating Perianal Eczema (PE) with remarkable clinical efficacy. However, the chemical constituents of SYXL and its underlying mechanisms of action in treating PE remain to be elucidated. Aim of the study: To elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying the therapeutic efficacy of SYXL in treating PE by integrating network pharmacology techniques with experimental validation. Materials and methods: Ultra Performance Liquid Chromatography-Quadrupole Time-Of-Flight-Mass Spectrometry/Mass Spectrometry (UPLC-QTOF-MS/MS) was utilized to identify the effective chemical constituents of SYXL. Potential targets and pathways were elucidated utilizing network pharmacology analysis. Subsequently, ELISA and Western blotting were utilized in a rat model of PE induced by DNCB, and in HaCaT cells co-stimulated with tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interferon-γ for further validation. Results: UPLC-QTOF-MS/MS identified a total of 93 compounds. Network pharmacology analysis revealed that the Janus kinase (JAK)/signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) signaling pathway was predicted to play major roles in the therapeutic effects of SYXL on PE. Conclusion: Our findings indicated that SYXL repaired skin barrier, suppressed inflammation, and treated PE by decreasing the generation of interleukin-1β, interleukin-6, and TNF-α, as well as inhibiting the phosphorylation of JAK2 and STAT3.
