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

objectiveThis study is to investigate the antitumor effects and possible mechanisms of chlorin e6-mediated photodynamic therapy (Ce6-PDT) on human colon cancer SW480 cells.

methodsSW480 cells were treated with Ce6, followed by photodynamic irradiation. Subcellular localization of Ce6 in SW480 cells was observed with confocal laser scanning microscopy (LSCM). Reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels were monitored with fluorescence microscopy. Cell proliferation and apoptosis were detected by the MTT assay and flow cytometry, respectively. Scratch test and colony formation assay were employed to analyze the cell migration ability and colony formation ability.

resultsLSCM showed that, in SW480 cells, Ce6 was evenly distributed within the ER and lysosomes, with nearly no distribution in the mitochondria and nuclei. When SW480 cells were subjected to Ce6-PDT, the ROS levels would be elevated, in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, Ce6-PDT treatment could inhibit the cell proliferation and enhance the apoptotic process, in SW480 cells. However, Ce6 treatment alone without photodynamic irradiation could not induce any significant differences in the cell proliferation and apoptosis. In addition, the migration ability and colony formation ability of SW480 cells were decreased by Ce6-PDT treatment at appropriate dosages.

conclusionCe6-PDT treatment could enhance ROS production and apoptosis, inhibit cell proliferation, decrease migration ability and colony formation ability, in SW480 cells, in a dose-dependent manner. These findings might provide experimental evidence for the application of Ce6-PDT in clinical treatment of colorectal cancer.
