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

Menopausal women face an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), and exploring effective therapeutic strategies from traditional Chinese medicine is of great clinical significance. Erxian decoction (EXD), a classic formula for alleviating menopausal symptoms, has potential cardiovascular protective effects, but its underlying mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, the effects of EXD on gut microbiota, TMAO levels, and inflammatory levels were evaluated in ovariectomized (OVX) rats, a well-established model of menopausal CVDs. EXD elevated serum E2 levels and improved both the cardiac systolic and diastolic functions in OVX rats. EXD decreased
