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
The objective of the present study was to evaluate the antioxidant and gastroprotective effect of Erica arborea hydroethanolic extract (EAHEx) against diclofenac-induced gastric ulcers in mice and to investigate the possible mechanisms of action through in silico analysis. In vitro results revealed that EAHEx had a significant antioxidant capacity. In vivo, diclofenac administration (150 mg/kg) in mice induced extensive damage to the gastric mucosa. Nevertheless, pretreatment with EAHEx (100 mg/kg) of mice was observed to provide protection against diclofenac-induced ulcers over ranitidine (20 mg/kg) in the sense of not permitting the development of gastric ulcers and also reducing the ulcer index (UI), increasing GSH, enhancing gastric mucus secretion and antioxidant enzyme levels (SOD, CAT, GPx and GST) and reducing MDA. Liquid chromatography analysis of EAHEx identified nine phenolic compounds (flavonoids and phenolic acids) that had in silico high binding energy to the gastric proton pump (H
