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

Background and Aim: Hypertensive Renal Disease (HRD) is a chronic and progressive condition driven by sustained high blood pressure, which leads to renal fibrosis and, eventually, end-stage kidney failure. Tengdan Capsule (TDC), a traditional Chinese medicinal formulation, has shown therapeutic potential for managing HRD. However, the specific quality markers (Q-markers) responsible for its efficacy and the underlying molecular mechanisms remain insufficiently understood. This study aimed to identify candidate Q-markers of TDC and elucidate the molecular pathways through which it exerts its renoprotective effects, using an integrative association analysis-based approach. Methods: The chemical composition of TDC and its potential Q-markers were systematically characterized through Results: A total of 82 chemical constituents were identified in TDC, 51 detected Conclusion: This study presents a novel framework for Q-marker identification in traditional herbal formulations using association-based multi-omics integration. Salvianolic acid B and KLRD1 were key indicators of TDC's quality and efficacy. These findings offer new mechanistic insights into the action of TDC and support its standardized evaluation and therapeutic application in HRD management.
