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

objectiveTo understand the efficacy of Jisheng Shenqi Wan (JSSQW, ) in treating calcium oxalate kidney stones (KS) and to investigate the mechanism of JSSQW action by combining network pharmacology with metabolomics analysis based on ultra-high performance liquid chromatography combined with tandem electrostatic field orbital trap high-resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Q/Orbitrap HRMS).

methodsThe chemical components of JSSQW absorbed into rat blood were identified by UHPLC-Q/Orbitrap HRMS. The identified components were introduced into the Bioinformatics Analysis Tool for Molecular mechanism of Traditional Chinese Medicine platform to screen for target genes, followed by Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis and disease enrichment analysis. A KS rat model was generated using the oxalic acid precursor method to examine the efficacy of JSSQW for treating KS. Serum metabolomics was used to monitor changes in endogenous substances in KS rats after JSSQW intervention.

resultsTwenty-three chemicals from JSSQW were identified in the blood of JSSQW gavage-administered rats. KEGG enrichment analysis predicted the top 20 signaling pathways affected by these 23 chemicals. Disease enrichment analysis showed that the target genes of these 23 chemicals were enriched in diseases of the urinary system and endocrine system, including kidney stones. In a KS rat model, JSSQW inhibited the aggregation of calcium oxalate crystals, reduced renal tubular injury, lowered the renal index, and improved biochemical indicators (blood creatinine, blood urea nitrogen). Serum metabolomics identified 25 differential metabolites that responded to JSSQW treatment. They were mainly lipids, with phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphorylcholine and their derivatives accounting for the highest proportion. Metabolic pathway analysis showed that the changes in differential metabolites were related to multiple metabolic pathways, especially sphingolipid metabolism and sphingolipid signaling pathways.

conclusionsJSSQW can inhibit the aggregation of calcium oxalate crystals in the kidneys, reduce tubular injury, and improve kidney function in KS rats. Its mechanism of action may be related to regulating disordered metabolites and metabolic pathways, especially glycerol phospholipid metabolism, sphingolipid metabolism, and sphingolipid signaling.
