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

Nitric oxide-donating aspirin (NO-ASA) is a promising agent for the control of cancer, whose mechanism of action remains unclear. NF-kappaB is an important signaling molecule in the pathogenesis of cancer. We studied in several human colon (HT-29, HCT-15, LoVo, HCT116 and SW-480), pancreatic (BxPC-3, MIA PaCa-2) and breast (MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7) cancer cell lines, the effect of NO-ASA on NF-kappaB activation, determined by electrophoretic mobility shift assays, immunofluorescence and western blot analyses of nuclear proteins. NO-ASA inhibited NF-kappaB activation, as early as 30 min and with IC(50)s ranging between 0.83 and 64 microM. Such inhibition was also observed at NO-ASA concentrations that had an insignificant or marginal effect on cell growth. The effect of NO-ASA on NF-kappaB binding to DNA was significantly correlated with its effect on cell growth (P < 0.05) indicating that the growth inhibitory effect of NO-ASA may be mediated by its effect on NF-kappaB. Compared with control, NO-ASA decreased NF-kappaB activation in intestinal epithelial cells of APC(min+/-) mice by 38.4% (P < 0.01). Western blot and immunofluorescence analyses revealed that the nuclear levels of the p50 and p65 NF-kappaB subunits were virtually unaffected, suggesting an inhibitory mechanism different from suppressed subunit translocation into the nucleus. Inhibition of NF-kappaB activation by NO-ASA may account, at least in part, for its chemopreventive efficacy.
