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: Haoqin Qingdan decoction (HQQD), composed of eleven herbs, is a traditional Chinese formula widely recognized for its efficacy in treating pulmonary inflammation induced by viral infections. Despite its extensive use, the potential pulmonary and intestinal protective effects of HQQD on influenza viral pneumonia (IVP) and the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. Materials and Methods: Ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS) was employed to identify the major chemical constituents of the prescription. Subsequently, network analysis was conducted to predict the potential therapeutic targets of HQQD in IVP. The mechanisms by which HQQD mitigates lung and intestinal damage were further elucidated by assessing NP protein expression, inflammatory factors, TLR7/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway mRNAs and proteins, and through intestinal flora analysis. Results: The protective effects of HQQD on pulmonary and intestinal injuries induced by IVP were thoroughly investigated using comprehensive network analysis, signaling pathway validation, and gut microflora analysis. UHPLC-MS analysis identified the primary chemical constituents. Validation experiments demonstrated a significant reduction in NP protein expression in the lungs. HQQD notably alleviated immune damage in the lungs and intestines of mice by inhibiting NP protein expression and the release of inflammatory factors such as interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and interferon-gamma (IFN-γ); downregulating the expression levels of TLR7, MyD88, and phospho-NF-κB p65 (p-p65); lowering serum LPS levels; and reducing the relative abundance of Conclusion: HQQD exerts therapeutic effects against influenza viral pneumonia through antiviral and anti-inflammatory mechanisms and by remodeling the intestinal flora. This study provides initial insights into the "gut-lung" axis mechanism of HQQD in combating respiratory influenza virus infection.
