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

Aim of the study: To investigate the effect of Ruanjian Qingmai granules (RJQM) on arteriosclerotic obliterans (ASO) and identify its potential bioactive components. Materials and methods: Separate zebrafish atherosclerosis models and cellular lipid metabolism disorder models were established, and RJQM was administered at different concentrations for intervention. The lipid deposition was examined by using Nile Red staining. The expression levels of cholesterol metabolism-related genes were determined by using quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). The Results: Ruanjian Qingmai granules significantly decreased lipid deposition and significantly increased the expression of Conclusion: Ruanjian Qingmai granules exerts a therapeutic effect on ASO by up-regulating the expression level of
