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

Paeoniflorin (PF), which is isolated from the paeony root, possesses tumor suppressive function in a variety of malignancies. However, it is unknown whether PF possesses anticancer activity in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) and which molecular mechanism is involved in PF-triggered antitumor function. In the current study, we measured cell proliferation, apoptotic death, cell cycle, cell motility in NPC cells after PF exposure. We found that PF suppressed cell proliferation, stimulated apoptosis, triggered cell cycle arrest, and impeded cell migratory and invasive activity in NPC cells. Mechanistically, PF inhibited the expression of neural precursor cell expressed developmentally downregulated protein 4 (NEDD4). We further validated that PF induced antitumor activity via downregulation of NEDD4 in NPC. Our data suggest that PF might act as a potential inhibitor of NEDD4 for treating NPC.
