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

In this study, screening by LC-MS and cytotoxicity-guided isolation led to the identification of ulleungamide C (1), a previously unknown pipecolic acid-rich branched cyclic depsipeptide, from a soil actinobacterium Streptomyces sp. KCB13F003. The structure of 1 was determined by interpretation of spectroscopic and spectrometric data from 1D and 2D NMR and HRESIMS experiments. Antiproliferative assays using mammalian cancerous cells revealed that 1 inhibits the proliferation of HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cells. Cell cycle analysis showed an increased accumulation of cells in the G0/G1 phase after treatment with 1. Results of immunoblotting assays revealed that 1 reduced the expression levels of cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4), CDK6, retinoblastoma protein (Rb), and phosphorylated Rb, whereas it induced cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1B (p27/Kip1) expression.
