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

Nowadays, cancer remains a major cause of death affecting millions of people. Currently, the antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) as potent anticancer therapeutic agents offer specificity and low levels of side effects in cancer therapy. In the present study, a cationic chimeric peptide (cLFchimera), derived from camel lactoferrin, was expressed as a secretory peptide using P170 expression system in L. lactis. Peptide purification was carried out using Ni-NTA agarose column from culture medium with 21 μ/mL concentration. The recombinant peptide was investigated for its activity against four tumor and one normal cell line. The cLFchimera was more active against two tumor cell lines (chondrosarcoma and colorectal cancer cells), but the activity against two other tumor cell lines (hepatoma and breast cancer cell line) and normal cells was low. Finally, to have better insight into the mode of action of the peptide on cytotoxic activity, we examined the interaction of cationic peptide with two glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), heparan sulfate (HS) and chondroitin sulfate (CS), as the two most anionic molecules on the cell surface by molecular dynamic simulation. The results of in silico analysis showed that the cLFchimera interacted with HS and CS with a totally different amino acid profile. Hydrogen bonding screening in GAGs-peptide complexes revealed K
