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

Chelerythrine (a natural quaternary benzophenanthridine alkaloid) is an extract from the roots of Chelidonium majus with potential antimycobacterial activity. To reveal the possible mechanism of action of chelerythrine against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis), commercial oligonucleotide microarrays were used to analyze the genome-wide transcriptional changes triggered by treatment with subinhibitory concentrations of chelerythrine. Quantitative real-time RT-PCR was performed for selected genes to verify the microarray results. We interpreted our microarray data using Agilent software. Analysis of the microarray data revealed that a total of 759 genes were differentially regulated by chelerythrine. Of these, 372 genes were upregulated, and 387 genes were downregulated. Some of the important genes that were significantly regulated are related to different pathways (such as urease), methoxy-mycolic acid synthase, surface-exposed lipids, the heat shock response, and protein synthesis. This genome-wide transcriptomics approach produced the first insights into the response of M. tuberculosis to a chelerythrine challenge.
