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 study was designed to investigate the chemopreventive action of three natural products, coumaperine, aurapten and an extract from rosemary, against the initiation stage of rat hepato-carcinogenesis. Coumaperine has been isolated from white pepper as a naturally occurring antioxidative agent, but its potential modifying effects on carcinogenesis remain unclear. In experiment 1, a modification of the model developed by Tsuda et al. was applied, with assessment of numbers and areas of induced glutathione S-transferase placental form (GST-P)-positive hepatocellular foci in male F344 rats. Coumaperine, aurapten and the extract from rosemary were administered i.g. at 100 mg / kg / day once daily for 5 days with initiation by diethylnitrosamine (DEN) on day 4 (20 mg / kg, i.p.). Numbers and areas of GST-P-positive foci in each group given test chemicals tended to be decreased as compared to the vehicle control group values, significance being achieved for number with coumaperine. Experiment 2 was planned to investigate the mechanism of the inhibitory effects of coumaperine. Livers at 8 h after initiation by DEN were examined with coumaperine administered at 100 mg / kg / day once daily for 3 days. Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA)-positive cells tended to be decreased as compared to the vehicle control, but no effects on apoptosis or cytochrome P-450 (CYP) 2E1 expression were apparent. Our results suggest that coumaperine provides protection against initiation of hepatocarcinogenesis, and that this is related to inhibition of cell proliferation.
