Curcumin analogue, A13, exhibits anti-leukemia effect via inhibiting STAT3.
Article in Tumour biology : the journal of the International Society for Oncodevelopmental Biology and Medicine, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Abnormal activation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) was reported in some leukemia, and inhibition of STAT3 can be the strategy for the leukemia treatment in clinic. In this study, we tested the anti-tumor effect of compound A13, a water-soluble analogue of curcumin, in vitro and in vivo. Herein, we show that A13 was able to reduce the viability of mastocytoma (P815 cells) and reticulum cell sarcoma (A20 cells) as measured by MTS assay. This effect was accompanied by a marked increase in the proportion of apoptotic cells as measured by flow cytometry. Furthermore, Western blot analysis suggested that the anti-leukemia effect of A13 was realized via STAT3 inhibition. In addition, systemic treatment with A13 in the A20-bearing mice for 60 days resulted in a significant improvement of survival rate and marked reduction of liver metastasis. In summary, our data show that the A13 treatment could effectively be applied to acute leukemia via inhibiting STAT3 signaling pathway.
