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

backgroundCancer is a major cause of mortality. The present study evaluates the antitumor effects of Ferula hezarlalehzarica Y. Ajani fractions on various cancer cell lines, including the Raji Burkitt's lymphoma cells.

methodsWe evaluated the cytotoxic activity of various fractions of F. hezarlalehzarica against tumor cell lines by the MTT assay. Annexin V-PE/7-AAD and cell cycle analysis were assessed by flow cytometry. Expressions of genes associated with cell death and proliferation (Bax, Bcl-2, Fas, and c-Myc) were determined using real-time PCR. Alteration in mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) was examined by JC-1 dye staining.

resultsThe hexane fraction of F. hezarlalehzarica showed the highest degree of cytotoxicity against Raji cells (IC

conclusionsThe F. hezarlalehzarica hexane fraction induced apoptosis in Raji cells by changing the expression of apoptosis-related genes, cell cycle distribution, and MMP. These data suggested a potential effectiveness of F. hezarlalehzarica for inducing cell death in lymphoma cells. Graphical abstract ᅟ.
