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: Sishen Pill (SSP) is a traditional Chinese medicine prescription commonly used to treat diarrhea with kidney-yang deficiency syndrome. The aim was to investigate the underlying mechanisms of SSP's therapeutic effects, providing experimental evidence for its mechanism of action. Methods: A mouse model of diarrhea with kidney-yang deficiency syndrome was induced using adenine combined with Results: SSP significantly improved the general behavioral characteristics of diarrhea mice, and reduced CutC activity, TMAO and IL-6 levels. Sequencing results indicated significant changes at the phylum and genus levels. Correlation analysis revealed a positive correlation between CutC activity and Conclusion: SSP significantly alleviated the symptoms of diarrhea with kidney-yang deficiency syndrome by modulating the cecal microbiota, downregulating CutC activity, and reducing TMAO and inflammatory factor levels. The cecal microbiota-CutC-TMAO-inflammatory cytokine axis may be a key mechanism underlying the therapeutic effects of SSP.
