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

Diallyl disulfide (DADS) exerts anticarcinogenic activity in various types of cancer. However, the mechanism underlying its anticarcinogenic activity remains to be elucidated. The aim of the present study was to explore the mechanism of the anticarcinogenic activity of DADS in gastric cancer (GC). The expression levels of microRNA (miR)-34a in GC and normal tissues were measured using reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). The expression of miR-34a was also measured using RT-qPCR in SGC-7901 cells following treatment with DADS. In addition, the effect of DADS on the invasion capability of SGC-7901 cells was observed in the presence of miR-34a or anti-miR-34a using a Matrigel invasion assay. Furthermore, in identical conditions, the apoptosis of SGC-7901 cells was observed using flow cytometry. Finally, the present study investigated the effects of DADS and miR-34a on the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt signaling pathway
