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 androgen receptor (AR) signaling pathway continues to be active in hormone resistant prostate cancer (HRPC) and can inappropriately activate transcription. Consequently the AR is a therapeutic target for HRPC. We reported that PC-SPES is active against HRPC, partly due to its actions in down-regulating AR protein expression and modulating cell cycle. Further investigation has identified five active anticancer compounds. This study describes the effects of three of these compounds (oridonin, isoliquiritigenin and wogonin) on cell proliferation, cell apoptosis, cell cycle parameters, AR and PSA protein expression. In each case, these compounds have independent activities which may partly contribute to the biological activity of PC-SPES.
