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

ZJU-6 was designed to enhance anti-angiogenesis and anti-tumour activity of its parent compound Erianin, a clinic anti-tumour agent. This study investigated the detailed biological mechanism of ZJU-6 in comparison with that of Erianin. Both ZJU-6 and Erianin substantially reduced cell viability and induced apoptosis in human cancer cell lines. Profound G2/M cell arrest was observed 24 h after treatment of MCF-7 cells with ZJU-6 (≥ 2.5 μM) or Erianin (≥ 0.1 μM); being consistent with mitotic collapse. 0.5 μM of Erianin or ZJU-6 failed to stabilise tubulin. Pre-G1 MCF-7 cell accumulating 24 h post treatment indicated apoptosis. Caspase-3 activity, PARP cleavage and Annexin V + ve /PI -ve populations correlate the apoptotic destiny of cells exposed to either ZJU-6 or Erianin. Furthermore ZJU-6 showed potent anti-angiogenetic property and demonstrated radical scavenging capacity. Due to its potent anti-proliferative, pro-apoptotic and anti-angiogenic activities ZJU-6 is an attractive chemotherapeutic agent to be developed.
