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

Resistance to apoptosis is an characteristic of cancer cells that serves a critical function in tumor development and represents a target for antitumor therapy. Isoimperatorin (ISOIM), a coumarin compound, exhibits antitumor functions in multiple types of tumor cells. However, its antitumor effects and molecular mechanisms with respect to gastric cancer have not been elucidated. The present study assessed the anti-proliferative and apoptotic effects of ISOIM on human BGC-823 gastric cancer cells and elucidated its underlying molecular mechanisms. Cell proliferation was evaluated using MTT assays. Analysis of cell morphology was performed by hematoxylin and eosin, Hoechst 33258 and acridine orange/ethidium bromide staining. In addition, cell cycle and apoptosis was evaluated using flow cytometry analysis; expression of apoptosis-associated proteins was studied by western blotting. The results of the present study revealed that ISOIM significantly inhibited cell proliferation by arresting the cell cycle at the G
