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

Objective: Oral cancer presents as a devastating type of malignancy. It is predominant in populations with high use of alcohol and various forms of tobacco as well as poor diets with low intake of fruits and vegetables. The present study focused on the potential of Garcinone E to inhibit HSC-4 oral cancer cell proliferation, migration and invasion. Methods: MTT and colony forming assays were performed to study antiproliferative effects of Garcinone E. Hoechst staining was used to determine levels of apoptosis, with cell invasion and scratch assays conducted for migration and invasion characteristics. The levels of MMPs and cytokines were quantified in Garcinone E treated cells by ELISA. Results: Garcinone E inhibited the proliferation and colony forming potential of HSC-4 cells. It also suppressed migration and invasion with inhibition of MMP-2 and MMP-9 expression. Moreover, it elevated IL-2 and reduced IL-6 expression in HSC-4 cells. Conclusion: Our results demonstrate for the first time that Garcinone E might inhibit metastasis of an oral cancer cell line by blocking invasion, migration and MMP production.
