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

Oleanolic acid (OA) derivatives exhibit numerous pleiotropic effects in many cancers. The present study aimed to investigate the molecular mechanisms of 5'-amino-oleana-2,12-dieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-28-oic acid (compound 4) and oleana-2,12-dieno[2,3-d]isoxazol-28-oic acid (compound 5) inducing apoptosis in human leukemia K562 cell. We investigated the effects of the compounds on K562 cell growth, apoptosis and cell cycle. The compounds showed strong inhibitory effects on K562 cell viability in a dose-dependent manner determined by the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazoyl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay and significantly increased chromatin condensation and apoptotic bodies in K562 cells. Flow cytometry assay suggested that the compounds induced inhibition of K562 cell proliferation associated with G1 phase arrest. In addition, the compounds inhibited Akt1 recruiting to membrane in CHO cells which express Akt1-EGFP constitutively and down-regulated the expression of pAkt1 in K562 cell. These results suggested that the compounds can efficiently inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis perhaps involved in inactivation of Akt1. The OA derivatives may be potential chemotherapeutic agents for the treatment of human cancer.
