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

This study investigated the therapeutic mechanism of Rehmanniae Radix Praeparata (RRP) in treating blood deficiency syndrome (BDS) through integrated chemical analysis and pharmacological validation. UPLC-Q-TOF-MS identified chemical components of Rehmanniae Radix (RR) and RRP, with network pharmacology analysis suggesting AKT1 and NOS3 in the PI3K-AKT pathway as potential therapeutic targets. Pharmacodynamic evaluations using ELISA, hematological analysis, histopathology, and immunohistochemistry demonstrated RRP's efficacy in improving hematological parameters, energy metabolism, and organ pathology in BDS mice. Experimental validation via RT-qPCR and Western blot confirmed significant upregulation of AKT1 and NOS3 mRNA and protein expression following RRP treatment. The findings indicate that RRP alleviates BDS by activating the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway to modulate AKT1 and NOS3 expression, providing mechanistic insights into its therapeutic actions.
