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

backgroundTo investigate the efficacy and safety of compound glycyrrhizin (CG) combined with antihistamines in the treatment of chronic urticaria (CU).

methodsWe will use computers to search all databases including Medline, Embase, Pubmed, Web of Science and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials and China's 4 databases: China National Knowledge Infrastructure Database, China Biomedical Literature Database, China Science Journal Database, and Wanfang Database. Find data from creation date to July 2020. In addition, we will manually search the list of medical journals as a supplement. The scope of the search included randomized controlled clinical studies related to CG combined with antihistamines for CU. The primary outcome is the disease activity control. Secondary outcomes include response rate, adverse events, and recurrence rates. The Cochrane RevMan V5.3 Deviation Assessment Tool will be used to assess bias assessment risk, data integration risk, meta-analysis risk, and subgroup analysis risk (if conditions are met). The average difference, standard mean difference, and binary data will be used to represent continuous results.

resultsThis study will comprehensively review the existing evidence on CG combined with antihistamines for CU.

conclusionThis systematic review will provide a basis for judging the effectiveness and safety of CG combined with antihistamines in the treatment of CU. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW REGISTRATION: PROSPERO, CRD42020156153.
