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

objectiveIsatin has gained attention in recent years owing to its anticancer properties and is thought to offer medical benefits. Isatin is an endogenous oxidized indole with various behavioral and metabolic properties and is commonly found in mammalian tissues and fluids. It has several plausible applications in biomedical research and has also been investigated as a potential anticancer agent. However, its effects on neuroblastoma (NB) cells are unclear. Here, we evaluate the effects of isatin on neuroblastoma cell metastasis and invasion and reveal the underlying mechanism.

methodsNB cell viability was evaluated with the cell counting kit (CCK)-8 assay. NB cell invasion and migration abilities were tested with transwell and wound healing experiments. The relative mRNA expression of associated molecules was detected with real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and quantitative PCR. The expression level of related proteins was detected with western blotting.

resultsIsatin inhibited the proliferation, invasion, and migration of neuroblastoma cells in a dose-dependent manner. Isatin increased the expression level of H3K4m1 and phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) and decreased the phosphorylation level of PTEN downstream proteins phosphoinositide 3-kinase, protein kinase B, mammalian target of rapamycin, focal adhesion kinase, and SHC. Together, these results support the potential anti-metastatic effects of isatin on NB cells.
