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

Background: Methods: Wistar pregnant rats were randomly distributed into four groups (n = 8). Group I (control) dams received distilled water. Group II-IV dams were treated with 559.36, 1118.72, and 2237.44 mg/kg of herbal tea of Results: No herbal tea-related maternal deaths or overt toxic symptoms were observed. The measured maternal systemic and reproductive toxicity parameters showed no herbal tea-associated significant alterations at any dosage levels. Moreover, there were no overt toxic effects of the herbal tea on the fetal external, visceral, or skeletal prenatal growth and development. Conclusion: The study findings demonstrated that the herbal tea of
