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

Alsterpaullone (Alp) is a small-molecule inhibitor that targets cyclin-dependent kinases to inhibit tumor cell activity. However, to the best of our knowledge, the effect of Alp on hepatoblastoma has not been investigated. Therefore, the function of Alp in apoptotic induction of hepatoblastoma cells and a potential mechanism of action were investigated. Results indicated that low doses of Alp (1 µM) significantly induced apoptosis in the HepG2 hepatoblastoma cell line.
