The Effect of Chinese Medicinal Formulas on Biomarkers of Oxidative Stress in STZ-Induced Diabetic Kidney Disease Rats: A Meta-Analysis and Systematic Review.

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
Background: Diabetic kidney disease (DKD), defined broadly as persistent proteinuria with low estimated glomerular filtration rate in patients with diabetes, is a main cause of end-stage renal disease. Excessive production of reactive oxygen species is an important mechanism underlying the pathogenesis of DKD and many antioxidants have been investigated as therapeutic agents. Among them, Chinese medicine antioxidative stress therapies have been widely used to combat DKD, which may offer new insights into therapeutic development of DKD. There are several discrepancies among the efficacy of Western medicine (WM) and Chinese medicinal formula (CMF) action. Methods: We searched PubMed, Cochrane Library, the Web of Science databases, Embase, and Scopus from inception to December 2021 using relevant keywords and a comprehensive search for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) was performed. Calculating the pooled weighted mean difference (MD) and Results: A total of 8 articles with the 9 groups including 106 in the model group, 105 in the CMF group, and 99 in the WM group. Pooled data from 8 studies (9 groups) showed a statistical improvement in superoxide dismutase compared with the model group [standardized MD (SMD) = 1.57; 95 CI: 1.16-1.98; Conclusion: This systematic review and meta-analysis have demonstrated that the therapy of CMF had a notable curative effect on relieving oxidative stress in STZ-induced DKD rats and CMF was significantly more effective than the WM control group. For the clinical application, the results providing confidence and some theoretical reference for DKD Systematic Review Registration: [PROSPERO], identifier [CRD42022313737].
