Clinical Efficacy of Qingke Mixture in Treating Mycoplasma Pneumonia in Children: A Randomized Controlled Trial.
Article in International journal of general medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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: Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP) is a common respiratory infection in children, current treatments are limited by resistance and side effects. This study aims to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of combining Qingke Mixture with azithromycin for treating MPP in children. Methods: This prospective, randomized, double-blind, controlled trial included 92 children diagnosed with MPP. The treatment group received Qingke Mixture and azithromycin, while the control group received azithromycin alone. Outcomes assessed included clinical symptoms, inflammatory markers, immune response, pulmonary function, and adverse events. Results: The treatment group showed significantly higher clinical efficacy (95.65% vs 80.43%, P < 0.05). The treatment group showed faster resolution of pulmonary symptoms, shorter hospital stays, and greater improvements in pulmonary function and TCM symptom scores (P < 0.05). Inflammatory markers (WBC, CRP, IL-6, IL-8) were significantly lower, while immunoglobulin levels (IgA, IgG, IgM) and T lymphocyte subsets (CD3+, CD4+/CD8+ ratio) were higher in the treatment group compared to the control group (P < 0.05). The incidence of adverse events was low in both groups, with no statistically significant difference. Conclusion: Qingke Mixture combined with azithromycin significantly improves clinical outcomes in children with MPP, enhancing efficacy while maintaining safety.
