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

Resveratrol (RSV) exerts anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic actions in different cell lines. Hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) are major fibrogenic cell types that contribute to collagen accumulation during chronic liver disease. In the present study, the inhibitory effects of RSV on cell proliferation, cell cycle, and apoptosis were evaluated in the mouse hepatic stellate cell line GRX. Cells treated with 1 nM-1 muM of RSV demonstrated a decrease in cell growth of about 35% after 5 days. GRX cells, treated with RSV (100 nM or 1 muM), were analyzed by flow cytometry; RSV induced an increase in the number of GRX cells in the S- and sub-G1 phases. The increase in sub-G1 phase cells and the nuclear condensation and fragmentation shown by DAPI staining identified a possible pro-apoptotic effect of RSV on GRX cells. Furthermore, the RSV anti-proliferative effects could be explained by an S-phase accumulation caused by a decrease in the progression through the cell cycle or an inhibition of S or G2 phase transition. It is notable that these RSV actions are mediated at nanomolar levels, compatible with the concentrations of free RSV in biological fluids after ingestion of polyphenol-rich foods, suggesting a possible effect of these foods as an adjuvant treatment in chronic liver diseases.
