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

Biejiajian Pills (BJJP) have demonstrated certain therapeutic effects in the treatment of hepatic fibrosis (HF) in Traditional Chinese medicine practice. However, their underlying mechanism of action remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the primary compounds of BJJP and their potential mechanisms in treating HF through network pharmacology and experimental validation. By integrating network pharmacology with RF, SVM-RFE, and LASSO algorithms, this study identified that the therapeutic effect of BJJP on HF may be mediated by two signature genes, LYN and CFTR, which were further validated using a validation set. Molecular docking results showed that the main compounds of BJJP, including six compounds such as kaempferol and baicalein, have a strong binding affinity with LYN and CFTR. Through the ssGSEA algorithm, we found that the proportions of six immune cell subsets, including M1 macrophages, M2 macrophages, and resting memory CD4
