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
backgroundImpatiens rothii is traditionally used in Ethiopia for the treatment of stomach upsets, burns, inflammation, cellulitis, and wounds. Based on this traditional use of Impatiens rothii, this study aimed to evaluate the phytochemical screening and potential antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory activities of solvent fractions of Impatiens rothii roots.
methodsCrude hydromethanolic extract was prepared by using a cold maceration method and fractionation by using a separatory funnel. To assess antinociceptive activity, acetic acid-induced writhing and hot plate tests were conducted, whereas carrageenan-induced paw edema was used to assess anti-inflammatory activity.
resultsThe glycosides, saponins, and terpenoids were found to be present in all the extracts. In the hot plate test, all three fractions showed significant central antinociceptive activity by significantly increasing the time of latencies at all time points except the first compared to the control (2% Tween 80) (p < 0.001). Moreover, the methanol and chloroform fractions at higher doses showed increased pain relief compared to lower doses (p < 0.05). In addition, the fractions showed significant analgesic activity in the acetic acid-induced writhing test (p < 0.001). In the carrageenan-induced paw edema test, all the fractions showed significant activity by reducing paw edema at different doses compared to the control over the six hours of the experiment (p < 0.05).
conclusionsThe findings affirm that the fractions of Impatiens rothii have antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory effects. The common occurrence of glycosides, saponins, and terpenoids in the plant indicates their relative abundance.
