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

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is an immune-mediated chronic and relapsing intestinal inflammatory disease. Interleukin (IL)-6, a pro-inflammatory cytokine, plays a key role in the uncontrolled intestinal inflammatory process, which is a main characteristic of UC. In this work, a quantitative structure-activity relationship model based on molecular topology (MT) has been built up to predict the IL-6 mediated anti-UC activity. After an external validation of the model, a virtual screening of the MicroSource Pure Natural Products Collection and Sigma-Aldrich databases was carried out looking for potential new active compounds. From the entire set of compounds labeled as active by the model, four of them, namely alizarin-3-methylimino-N,N-diacetic acid (AMA), Calcein, (+)-dibenzyl-L-tartrate (DLT), and Ro 41-0960, were tested in vitro by determination of IL-6 production in two cell lines (RAW 264.7 and Caco-2). The results demonstrate that three of them were able to significantly reduce IL-6 levels in both cell lines and particularly one, namely Ro 41-0960. These results confirm MT's efficacy as a tool for the selection of compounds potentially active in UC.
