The effect of 5α-oleandrin on keloid fibroblast activities.
Article in BMC proceedings, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
backgroundKeloids develop due to hyperactivity of keloid fibroblast (KF) in proliferation, migration, and collagen deposition along with low rates of collagen degradation. These are a result of the Wnt/β catenin signaling pathways under stimulation of TGF-β. 5α-oleandrin can suppress Wnt-targeted genes of osteosarcoma cells. We aimed to evaluate the anti-fibrotic effects of 5α-oleandrin on KF activities.
methodsWe collected the core of keloid materials from six patients who underwent keloid debulking surgery. Passage 4 of KF cells were then treated with mitomycin-C, 5α-oleandrin, and dilution medium as the negative control. To determine the effective dose of 5α-oleandrin, we diluted 5α-oleandrin into various concentrations. The incubation periods were 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h. The anti-proliferation and anti-fibrotic properties were measured using standard assay.
resultsBoth the mitomycin-C and 5α-oleandrin treated groups indicated decrease in proliferation index (86.16 ± 4.20% and 73.76 ± 4.94%, respectively), collagen deposition index (90.26 ± 1.72% and 71.35 ± 4.26%, respectively), and migration capacity (33.51 ± 1.50% and 28.57 ± 1.58%, respectively). These were significant changes (
conclusionsThe 5α-oleandrin has good antifibrotic effect in keloid fibroblast activities.
