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 analyze the efficacy and safety of compound Danshen dripping pills (CDDPs) in the treatment of patients with diabetic retinopathy (DR) with the syndrome of Qi stagnation and blood stasis.

methodsThe clinical data of 81 patients with DR admitted to our hospital were analyzed retrospectively, and the patients were divided into an observation group (n=40) and a control group (n=41) in accordance with a random number table. The observation group was treated with CDDPs, while the control group was treated with Captopril. The response rates, change of severity degrees of retinopathy, improvement of vision, incidence of macular edema and symptom scores were compared between the two groups.

results(1) The ratio of decreasing degree of severity of retinopathy in the observation group was greater than that in the control group, while the ratio of increasing degree of severity of retinopathy in the observation group was lower than that in the control group (

conclusionCDDPs can effectively elevate the response rate, reduce the degree of severity of retinopathy, mitigate the incidence of macular edema, and improve the vision of DR patients with the syndrome of Qi stagnation and blood stasis, exhibiting a satisfactory safety profile. Therefore, it has a good application value.
