Synthesis and Cytotoxic Evaluation of Monocarbonyl Analogs of Curcumin as Potential Anti-Tumor Agents.
Article in Drug development research, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Preclinical Research A series of mono-carbonyl curcumin analogs with different substituents at the 4/4'-position of the phenyl group were synthesized and screened for in vitro cytotoxicity against a panel of human cancer cell lines using a methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium assay. Several of the curcumin analogs, especially B114, exhibited a wide-spectrum of anti-tumor properties in all tested cell lines, indicating their potential in as anti-cancer lead compounds. Further toxicity testing in the NRK-52E kidney cell line revealed that the analogs A111, A113, and B114 had comparable or higher safety than curcumin. These data suggested that the introduction of appropriate substituents in the 4/4'-positions could be a promising approach for curcumin-based drug design.
