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

Colitis-associated cancer (CAC) is one of the most serious complications of inflammatory bowel disease. The pathogenesis of CAC is complicated and so far elusive, and the anti-inflammatory effect does not assure CAC preventive activity, making it difficult to discover CAC preventive drugs. In this study, we report the CAC preventive effect of the ethyl acetate (EIR) of Ilex rotunda Thunb., a traditional Chinese herbal medicine being clinically used to treat intestinal disease. We also report the results of screening for CAC preventive agents from EIR via a nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) translocation model in Caco2 cells, since activated NF-κB can be used by tumor cells at the early stage of tumorigenesis. Twenty-four components were isolated from EIR and identified by multiple chromatography and spectral analysis. MTT experiments in IEC-6 and RAW264.7 cells showed that all 24 compounds were toxic-free to normal cell lines. Furthermore, compound rotundic acid (RA) (19) exhibited an inhibitory effect on LPS-induced NF-κB translocation in Caco2 cells. Moreover, RA did not induce apoptosis in Caco2 tumor cells while possessing an anti-inflammatory effect both in immune and intestinal epithelium cells (RAW264.7 and IEC-6 cells, respectively). Removing RA (19) and its 28-O-glucopyranoside (17) from EIR definitely undermined the in vivo CAC preventive activity of EIR. Therefore, the current study suggested that RA (19) could be a potential therapeutic agent against CAC.
