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

The global prevalence of metabolic diseases (MetDs) is rising annually and poses a major challenge to public health. Paeoniflorin(PF), a naturally occurring phytochemical, considerably improves insulin sensitivity, glucose and lipid metabolism, bile acid metabolism, inflammation and oxidative stress. This article comprehensively reviews recent research on the role of PF in the treatment of six common MetDs: diabetes mellitus and its complications, non-alcoholic fatty liver, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, atherosclerosis, cholestasis, and polycystic ovary syndrome, along with its potential molecular mechanisms. In addition, we summarize the pharmacological and toxicological properties of PF and propose strategies to enhance its bioavailability, opening new avenues for its clinical application. Overall, this study demonstrates that PF exhibits therapeutic potential against various MetDs and may serve as a promising candidate for the treatment of metabolic disorders.
