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

backgroundThis study aimed to explore the growth inhibitory effect of myricanol 5-fluorobenzyloxy ether (5FEM) and its underlying mechanisms in human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells in vitro.

methods5FEM was obtained by the chemical modification of myricanol with fluorobenzyloxy ether at the OH(5) position. The cytotoxicity, cell apoptosis, cell cycle, mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm), scratch test, colony formation, and the expression levels of the key survivin pathway-related genes in A549 were evaluated.

results5FEM could significantly inhibit A549 cell growth; induce cell apoptosis; increase G0/G1 population; reduce ΔΨm; inhibit cell migration and colony formation; upregulate caspase-9, P21, and Bax expression levels; and downregulate PARP, survivin, and Bcl-2 expression level.

conclusionThese results enhanced our understanding of 5FEM and aid the discovery of novel myricanol derivatives as potential antitumor agents.
