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

backgroundChaihu-Shugan-San (CSS), a classic traditional Chinese medicine formula, has demonstrated significant efficacy in treating various gastrointestinal disorders.

aimTo explore the therapeutic efficacy of CSS in alleviating chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG), and elucidate the underlying mechanisms of action.

methodsHigh performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry was used to identify the main active components of CSS. The therapeutic effects of CSS at doses of 925 mg/kg/day and 1850 mg/kg/day on N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG)-induced CAG were evaluated. Network pharmacology and molecular docking were used to predict the potential targets of CSS in CAG. The impact of CSS on the gut microbiota of rats was investigated by 16S rRNA sequencing.

resultsThe main active components of CSS were lipids and lipid-like molecules, phenylpropanoids and polyketides.

conclusionCSS alleviated CAG by inhibiting NF-κB-mediated inflammation and apoptosis, providing insights into its mechanism of action in protection against CAG.
