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

Insampaedok-san (IPS) is one of the East Asian traditional medicines which have been prescribed for hundreds of years to treat common cold and headache. Although many herbs and prescriptions are known to have significant activities against diseases, only a limited number of reports and scientific evidences on their efficacies are available. To identify anticancer effect against colon cancer, traditional prescription IPS and its fermented IPS (FIPS) were examined by in vitro molecular biological analysis. IPS water extract was fermented, lyophilized, and examined by cytotoxicity, cell cycle, and western blot assays, using cancer cell lines. Resultantly, FIPS showed significant cytotoxicities inducing caspase dependent apoptosis and activation of caspase-3 (CASP3) and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) cleavage in colon cancer cell line SW620. These findings can be useful for development of anticancer functional food or complementary and alternative medicine, with remaining in-depth molecular functional studies.
