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

Evaluating anti-oxidant potential of Ganoderic acid A in STAT 3 pathway in Prostate cancer. Molecular docking and ADMET activities of different isoforms of ganoderic acid on STAT 3 pathway were performed by Maestro 9.6 (Schrödinger Inc). The ganoderic acid A is best-docked among isoforms which analyses the expression level of antioxidant and STAT 3 pathway in PC-3 cells. The receptor-based molecular docking reveals the best binding interaction of SH2 domain of STAT3 and ganoderic acid A with GScore (-6.134), kcal/mol, Lipophilic EvdW (-1.83), Electro (-1.1), Glide emodel (-31.857), H bond (1.98), MM-GBSA (-69.555). The molecular docking QikProp analyzed the absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity (ADME/T). The ganoderic acid A is best-docked among isoforms which downregulates the expression of STAT 3 in PC-3 cells. Moreover, ganoderic acid A inhibits proliferation, viability, ROS, DPPH, and analyzed the expression of SOD1, SOD2, and SOD3 by Real time PCR in a PC-3 cell in a dose-dependent manner. Molecular docking revealed the mechanistic binding of Ganoderic acid A in STAT3 signaling, which inhibits the proliferation, viability, and ROS in PC-3 cells.
