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

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects and mechanisms of baicalin against prostate cancer cell growth and cell cycle progression. A human prostate cancer cell line LNCaP was engrafted into nude mice, and the oncogenicity of LNCaP cells was analyzed. The 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay was used to measure LNCaP and PC3 proliferation capability. CDK6 mRNA level was detected using qRT-PCR. Western blotting was performed to assess the levels of cell cycle-associated proteins. In addition, cell cycle and apoptosis were analyzed using flow cytometry. Baicalin significantly decreased the expression of cell cycle-associated proteins. Furthermore, baicalin showed an observable effect on proliferation, cell cycle progression and apoptosis in LNCaP and PC3 cells. Upregulation of CDK6 and FOXM1 reversed the effect of baicalin. CDK6- and FOXM1-mediated cell growth attenuated the protective effect of baicalin in prostate cancer. This study presented an understanding of the role and mechanism of baicalin in prostate cancer cells, providing a new target and therapies for the prevention and treatment of prostate cancer.
