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

Maple syrup is a natural sweetener that is consumed worldwide. It has been previously reported that dark-colored maple syrup exerts an inhibitory effect on colorectal cancer (CRC) proliferation and invasion. In the present study, the underlying mechanism of CRC cell growth inhibition was examined with dark-colored maple syrup treatment using a shotgun liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry-based global proteomic approach. Applying a semi-quantitative method based on spectral counting, 388 proteins were identified with expression changes of >1.5-fold following dark-colored maple syrup treatment. Gene Ontology analysis revealed that these proteins possessed cell cycle-associated functions. It was also indicated that CRC cells treated with dark-colored maple syrup exhibited decreased proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) expression and S-phase cell cycle arrest. Dark-colored maple syrup treatment also resulted in altered expression of cell cycle-associated genes, including cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK)4 and CDK6. In conclusion, these data suggested that dark-colored maple syrup induced S-phase cell cycle arrest in CRC cells by reducing the expression of PCNA and regulating cell cycle-associated genes. These findings suggest that dark-colored maple syrup may be a source of compounds for the development of novel drugs for colorectal cancer treatment.
