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

Some Dorema species are used in Persian traditional medicine. In the present study the total extract from the roots of Dorema hyrcanum Koso-Pol. was investigated for its in-vitro (pLDH assay) and in-vivo (Peters' 4-days suppressive test) antiplasmodial effects and assessed for cytotoxicity against the normal cell line MDBK (MTT test). The IC50 values for a chloroquine- sensitive (3D7) and a chloroquine- resistant (K1) strain of Plasmodium falciparum were 28.64 and 9.79 µg/mL, respectively. The inhibition percentage of the rodent parasite, Plasmodium berghei, on day 4 in mice was 77.9% and IC50 value on Madin-Darby bovine kidney cells (MDBK cells) was 59.84 µg/mL. The total extract was subjected to a bioassay-guided fractionation protocol based on the in-vivo model which resulted in the isolation of an acetophenon (compound 1), one new sesquiterpenoid; naghibione (compound 2) and two known sesquiterpenoid derivatives (compounds 3, 4). Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic analysis, including 1D and 2D NMR experiments and ESI-MS. All compounds were evaluated for in-vivo antiplasmodial effect and the results revealed that naghibione showed good suppression activity, inhibiting 68.1 % of the parasite growth.
