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

objectiveTo elucidate how ethanol extract of L. serratum (ELS) could exert anti-migratory effects on glioma with the suppression of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) downstream pathway.

methodsCell viability of ELS on C6 glioma was detected by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. Nitric oxide (NO) assay and 2',7'-dichlorofluorescin diacetate (DCFH-DA) assay were applied to measure NO production and reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced C6 glioma cells. NF-κB, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), inducible nictric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) protein were determined by Western blot. Wound healing assay was used to investigate the inhibitory effect of ELS on fetal bovine serum (FBS)-induced migration and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 and -2 activity was examined by zymography.

resultsELS suppressed LPS-induced phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), and p38 through inhibiting the expression of chemokine CCL2 (or monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, MCP-1). In addition, ELS inhibited the expression of iNOS, COX-2, and the production of NO by LPS in C6 glioma cells. ELS also significantly decreased serum-induced migration of C6 glioma cells in scratch wound healing in a dose-dependent manner (P<0.01). The activity of MMP-9 and -2 were also significantly attenuated by ELS with LPS treatment (P<0.01).

conclusionsOur results suggest that downregulation of MMP-9 gene expression might be involved in the anti-migration effect of ELS against LPS-induced C6 glioma cells.
