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

objectiveWe investigated the antitumor effects of salidroside and preliminarily examined its underlying mechanisms by establishing a nude mouse model bearing MCF-7 breast cancer cell xenografts.

methodsThe mice were grouped and intraperitoneally injected with salidroside, paclitaxel, or physiological saline. Tumor samples were weighed, and immunohistochemical staining with hematoxylin and eosin and anti-CD34 antibody was performed. Tumor cell apoptosis was observed using the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase deoxyuridine dUTP nick end labeling assay. Bcl-1, p53, Bax, and caspase 3 expression in tumor tissues was determined via western blotting.

resultsThe tumor inhibition rate of high-dose salidroside was 75.16%, which was significantly higher than the rates for paclitaxel and saline. A tumor tissue pathology analysis revealed that high-dose salidroside inhibited tumor cell proliferation and promoted tumor cell apoptosis. Western blotting revealed that Bcl-2 and p53 expression were significantly lower in the salidroside group than in the other groups, whereas Bax and caspase 3 (17 kDa) expression were increased.

conclusionsSalidroside was more effective than paclitaxel in inhibiting tumor growth in MCF-7 breast cancer cell-bearing nude mice. The mechanism of action may involve Bcl-2 and p53 downregulation and Bax and caspase 3 upregulation, thereby increasing proapoptotic factor expression and inducing tumor cell apoptosis.
