Clinical randomized controlled trial and network pharmacological analysis of blood glucose regulation by Korean red ginseng in patients with type 2 diabetes and impaired glucose regulation.
Article in Journal of ginseng research, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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: Methods: We included randomly allocated participants to a test group that received red ginseng or a placebo control group. Network pharmacology was used to analyze the targets of Korean red ginseng and the genes related to type II diabetes, with the core targets being inferred. Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes enrichment analyses were conducted to explore the potential mechanisms of action of red ginseng. Results: Regarding safety, none of the participants showed adverse effects. The test group exhibited significant post-intervention reductions in fasting blood glucose (from 6.44 ± 1.17 to 6.19 ± 1.14 mmol/L), 2-h blood glucose (from 11.96 ± 4.40 to 10.48 ± 3.72 mmol/L), and HbA1c (from 6.27 ± 0.79 to 6.12 ± 0.81 %; all Conclusion: According to the Evaluation Method of Auxiliary Blood Glucose Lowering Function of health products (2012 Version), we can conclude that RG capsules can help reduce blood glucose levels in individuals with Type 2 diabetes and Impaired Glucose Regulation.
