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

objectiveTo investigate the effect of Ginkgo biloba extract (EGB) on the proliferation and cell cycles of gastric carcinoma SGC7901 cells, and make a preliminary exploration on possible molecular mechanisms associated with its inhibitory effect.

methodsHuman gastric carcinoma SGC7901 cells were cultured in vitro, and treated with various concentrations (100, 200, 300, 400 mg/L) of EGB for different incubation periods (24, 48 and 72 h). CCK-8 assay was used to detect cell proliferation and flow cytometry was performed to analyze the effect of EGB on cell cycles. In addition, mRNA and protein level of two cell cycle regulators cyclin D1 and c-myc in SGC7901 cells treated with EGB were determined using PCR and Western blot. And subcutaneous xenograft model of gastric carcinoma in nude mice was established to evaluate the anti-cancer effect of EGB in vivo.

resultsThe proliferation of gastric carcinoma SGC7901 cells was inhibited by EGB in dose- and time-dependent manner. Flow cytometry showed cell cycle arrest in EGB-treated cells, with increased percentage of cells in G1 phase and decreased percentage in S stage. In addition, the mRNA and protein level of cyclin D1 and c-myc genes were significantly down-regulated in cells with EGB treatment with the concentration increasing.

conclusionEGB conferred an inhibitory effect on the proliferation of gastric carcinoma SGC7901 cells both in vitro and in vivo. The inhibitory effect was dose dependent and possibly depended on inhibiting cell cycle through G1 arrest induction by suppressing cyclin D1 and c-myc expression.
