Network pharmacological and experimental validation of the mechanism of Chaihu Guizhi Ganjiang decoction regulating T helper cell 17/regulatory T cell balance to improve autoimmune hepatitis.
Article in Journal of traditional Chinese medicine = Chung i tsa chih ying wen pan, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveTo elucidate the therapeutic efficacy and mechanism of action of Chaihu Guizhi Ganjiang decoction (, CGGD) in autoimmune hepatitis.
methodsCGGD components and potential target genes were extracted from previously published databases. The autoimmune hepatitis (AIH)-related regulatory genes were obtained from the DisGeNET database. Intersections were taken, and enrichment analyses were performed on the extracted data. Concanavalin A (ConA)-induced AIH model mice were treated with CGGD
resultsNetwork pharmacology revealed 228 genes at the intersection of AIH and CGGD. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes analysis revealed that CGGD primarily regulates the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/ protein kinase B (AKT) signaling pathway and cellular metabolism in AIH. Gene Ontology enrichment analysis revealed that CGGD modulates inflammation through transcription factor-mediated signaling pathways. As predicted, CGGD attenuated ConA-induced AIH in a dose-dependent manner by activating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. Histopathological assessment confirmed the protective effects of CGGD against ConA-induced AIH. Further investigation revealed that CGGD regulated the T helper cell 17 (Th17)/regulatory T cell (Treg) balance by modulating the PI3K/Akt/ nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) pathway.
conclusionsThis study demonstrated the therapeutic effect of CGGD on AIH through a combination of network pharmacological prediction and experimental validation. Its mechanism of action involves PI3K/Akt/ NF-κB-mediated regulation of Th17/Treg cells.
