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

Cobalt oxide nanoparticles (Co3O4-NPs) were synthesized using simple urea-based thermal decomposition method. Phase purity and particle size of as-synthesized nanoparticles were characterized through X-ray diffraction pattern (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy. Through XRD morphology of the Co3O4-NPs was found to be variable in size with range of 36 nm. In our present study, we explored the potential cytotoxic and antibacterial effects of Co3O4-NPs in human colorectal types of cancerous cells (HT29 and SW620) and also nine Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Co3O4-NPs showed promising anticancer activity against HT29 and SW620 cells with IC50 value of 2.26 and 394.5 μg/mL, respectively. However, no significant effect of Co3O4-NPs was observed against bacterial strains. Furthermore, a detailed study has been carried out to investigate the possible mechanism of cell death in HT29 cancer cell line through the analysis of expression level of anti-apoptotic Bcl2 and BclxL markers. Western blot analysis results suggested significant role of Co3O4-NPs exposure in cell death due to apoptosis.
