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

One of the research lines developed in our laboratory is focused on the study of the bioactivity of natural substances. Resveratrol (RV) is a polyphenol nonflavonoid compound present in a number of plant species but mainly in the berries of the red grape Vitis vinifera. The powerful antioxidant action of this molecule is well documented. In this work we evaluated the effects of this substance by adopting diverse experimental strategies. In particular, we studied the effects on cell vitality and cycle by MTT and cytofluorimetric assays. In addition, we explored the action of RV on the cell membrane by a well-consolidated biophysical approach: electrorotation. This technique allows assessment of the structure/function of the cell membrane. The results presented here demonstrate that RV shows a modest effect on the biological properties of the cell in terms of cytotoxicity and cell cycle alterations. On the contrary, a significant effect on the membrane structure/function was observed, consisting of an enhanced intramembrane ion transport. The implications and interpretation of these membrane alterations are discussed.
