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

Jianpi-Huogu Prescription (JHP), integrating the classic Chinese herbal formulas Linggui-Zhugan Decoction and Si-Wu Decoction, has shown clinical efficacy in treating early nontraumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head (NONFH). In this study, 299 chemical constituents of JHP were identified using ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time of flight mass spectrometry. Pharmacological evaluations in rats with early NONFH demonstrated that JHP attenuated femoral head pathological changes, improved gait parameters, increased mechanical pain thresholds, reduced serum levels of triglycerides, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein, very-low-density lipoprotein, and the TXB₂/6-keto-PGF₁α ratio while elevating high-density lipoprotein, decreased serum inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α) and the RANKL/OPG ratio, and restored bone trabecular morphology and reduced the number of bone marrow adipocytes. Mechanistically, through transcriptomic profiling, network calculations and experimental validation, JHP downregulated NMNAT1, NMNAT3, and NAMPT in the femoral head, thereby reducing NAD
