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

This acidic ethanol extraction method was adopted to extract total alkaloids from lotus leaves. Single-factor experiments combined with response surface methodology (RSM) were employed to optimite extraction conditions. The optimal extraction parameters were determined as follows: 55 °C, 77% ethanol, 0.66% hydrochloric acid, under which the extraction yield of total alkaloids reached 4.14%. D101 macroporous resin was selected for the purification of crude alkaloid extracts. The resin exhibited an adsorption capacity of 8.60 mg/g and a desorption rate of 43.39%. The optimized purification conditions were as follows: 4 mg/mL sample solution, 50% ethanol eluent, 1.5 BV/h flow rate, 30 mL loading/100 mL elution volume. After purification, total alkaloid purity reached 89.31 ± 1.33%. Adsorption obeyed pseudo-second-order kinetics and Temkin isotherm, being spontaneous and endothermic. This provides improved methods for isolating bioactive alkaloids from lotus leaf.
