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

Ten steroids and iridoids were isolated from the tubers of Alocasia cucullata (Lour.) G. Don. Among them, alocasgenin A (1) and alocasgenoside B-C (2-3) were new compounds and the aglycone of compound 1, obtained from the acid hydrolysis of 1, was named alocasgenol (1a). Also, for the first time, tenacigenin B (4), 17β-tenacigenin-B (5), 3-O-6-deoxy-3-O-methyl-β-D-allopyranosyl-(1→4)-β-D-oleandropyranosyl-tenacigenin C (6), marsdenoside A-B (7-8) and tenacigenoside A-B (9-10) were isolated from the genus Alocasia. The chemical structures were elucidated by the extensive analysis of spectral data and compared with the literature. By evaluation of the cytotoxic and tyrosine kinase inhibition, compounds 1-10, 1a and compound 2 showed significant growth inhibition against two tumour cell lines, MGC-803 and HT-29, while compounds 1, 1a, 3, 6 and 8 presented moderate inhibition. Furthermore, compound 2 had the inhibitory property against the enzyme activity biochemically.
