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

The aim of the present study is to focus the chemopreventive potential of Emodin during 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA) induced hamster buccal pouch carcinogenesis. Tumors were developed in the buccal pouches of golden Syrian hamsters by painting with 0.5% DMBA thrice a week for 14 weeks. The status of lipid peroxidation, antioxidants and detoxification agents were utilized as biochemical endpoints and the expression pattern of apoptotic proteins was employed as molecular endpoints in addition to the histopathological studies, to substantiate the anticancer potential of Emodin. Hamsters treated with DMBA + Emodin revealed mild to moderate precancerous lesions such as hyperplasia and dysplasia whereas 100% tumor formation was noticed in hamsters treated with DMBA alone. Also, Emodin treatment modulated the status of lipid peroxidation, antioxidants, phase I and II detoxification agents and apoptotic proteins in favor of the inhibition/reversal/suppression of the oral tumorigenesis in DMBA treated hamsters. The present study thus concludes that the chemopreventive potential of Emodin relies on its pro-apoptotic and antioxidant efficacy during DMBA induced hamster buccal pouch carcinogenesis.
