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.
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
Bombyx batryticatus is a traditional Chinese medicine. To understand apoptotic effect of B. batryticatus ethanol extract (BBE), we investigated the role of BBE in inducing apoptosis of human gastric cancer cells SGC-7901. Cells treated with BBE and apoptosis was assessed by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay, morphological changes, DNA fragmentation and flow cytometry assays. The expression of Bcl-2, Bax and P21 were evaluated by western blot analysis and real time polymerase chain reaction. MTT assay showed that the cytotoxicity of BBE extract on SGC-7901 cells was correlated with treatment time and concentration. After treatment with 6 mg/mL of BBE the microscopy showed that, the majority of SGC-7901 cells were obviously reduced, distorted and grew slowly. Annexin-V/propidium iodide double-staining assay emerge the early apoptosis and the late apoptosis after treatment with different times by laser confocal fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometer. Cell cycle analysis of SGC 79 cells showed that BBE induced cell cycle arrest in the G1 and G2 phases. DNA fragmentation indicated the trend of BBE inducing apoptosis on SGC-7901 cells. The qRT-PCR and western blot analysis indicated that the mRNA and protein expressions of Bax and P21 were significantly up-regulated whereas that of Bc1-2 was down-regulated after treatment with BBE for 24 h. Our results revealed a correlation between gene regulation and BBE-induced apoptosis, which might indicate the potential of BBE in cancer therapy.
