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

This study is to determine effect of Andrographolide (AD) on the growth of the non-small cell lung cancer cell line H3255. Expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1), and the activity of protein kinase C (PKC) were also detected. The H3255 cells were treated with 1.0, 2.5, or 5.0 μM AD for 24 h. MTT assay was performed to examine cell viability. Levels of VEGF and TGF-β1 were detected by ELISA. The ATPase activity and PKC activity were tested. AD treatments decreased cell viability via a concentration-dependent manner, leading to decreases in the Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activities (P < 0.05). AD also increased levels of the DNA fragmentation and releasing of lactate dehydrogenase. AD also reduced VEGF and TGF-β1 levels, and inhibited protein kinase C activities in H3255 cells (P < 0.05). AD inhibits proliferation of lung cancer cells via a concentration-dependent manner by a mechanism related to reducing levels of VEGF and TGF-β1. Thus, AD might be a potent anti-lung cancer agent.
