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

Bioactivity-guided fractionation of an aqueous methanolic extract of manufactured gambir product from Uncaria gambir with in vitro α-glucosidase inhibitory activity was performed to isolate a novel prenyl resorcinol derivative (1) together with seven known compounds, including two flavone glycosides (2, 3), three catechin analogues (4-6), and two simple phenolics (7, 8). Structures of the isolated compounds were determined by analysis of physical and spectroscopic data (NMR, UV, [α]D, and MS). All isolates were evaluated for in vitro α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. Among the compounds, novel compound 1, possessing an unprecedented spirocyclopropane ring in the molecule, showed the most potent α-glucosidase inhibitory activity in this assay. On the other hand, compounds 4 and 7 showed less potent inhibitory effects in this same bioassay, with half-maximal inhibitory concentration values of 17.3 ± 1.0 μM and 27.0 ± 0.9 μM, respectively.
