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

backgroundAdministration of quercetin (QR) has shown several health benefits in clinical and pre-clinical studies.

objectiveThis study investigates the effect of dietary doses of QR on hepatic drug metabolizing enzymes in spontaneously hypertensive rats in order to investigate the potential for herb-drug interactions.

methodsThe activity and/or protein expression of selected cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes and microsomal epoxide hydrolase were measured in hepatic microsomes using specific probe substrates and/or polyclonal antibodies. Cytosolic fraction was utilized to measure protein level and activity of major antioxidant systems.

resultsThe doses employed in our study did not cause any significant alterations in the activity and/or protein level of CYP1A1, CYP2A6, CYP2E, and glutathione (GSH). While the activity and apoprotein levels of CYP1A2 and CYP2B1/2 were significantly reduced by the medium and high doses of QR, the activity and/or protein level of microsomal CYP3A and cytosolic GSH-S-transferase, GSH reductase, and GSH peroxidase were significantly enhanced. Activity and protein level of CYP2C9 were significantly inhibited by all doses. Only the high-dose QR resulted in significant inhibition of both microsomal and soluble epoxide hydrolase as well as induction of the antioxidant enzymes, catalase and superoxide dismutase.

conclusionThis study demonstrates that dietary doses of QR may offer chemoprevention through stimulation of the endogenous antioxidant systems and inhibition of CYP enzymes involved in bioactivation of procarcinogens. However, modulation of drug metabolizing enzymes by QR could have potential for herb-drug interactions with the possibility of serious complications.
