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.
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
backgroundMagnesium isoglycyrrhizinate (MI) was extracted from roots of the plant Glycyrrhiza glabra, which displays multiple pharmacological activities such as anti-inflammation, anti-apoptosis, and anti-tumor. Here, we aimed to investigate the effect of MI on the progression and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of laryngeal cancer.
methodsForty laryngeal cancer clinical samples were used. The role of MI in the proliferation of laryngeal cancer cells was assessed by MTT assay, Edu assay and colony formation assay. The function of MI in the migration and invasion of laryngeal cancer cells was tested by transwell assays. The effect of MI on apoptosis of laryngeal cancer cells was determined by cell apoptosis assay. The impact of MI on tumor growth in vivo was analyzed by tumorigenicity analysis using Balb/c nude mice. qPCR and Western blot analysis were performed to measure the expression levels of gene and protein, respectively.
resultsWe identified that EMT-related transcription factor Twist was significantly elevated in the laryngeal cancer tissues. The expression of Twist was also enhanced in the human laryngeal carcinoma HEP-2 cells compared with that in the primary laryngeal epithelial cells. The high expression of Twist was remarkably correlated with poor overall survival of patients with laryngeal cancer. Meanwhile, our data revealed that MI reduced cell proliferation, migration and invasion and enhanced apoptosis of laryngeal cancer cells in vitro. Moreover, MI decreased transcriptional activation and the expression levels of NF-κB and Twist, and alleviated EMT in vitro and in vivo. MI remarkably inhibited tumor growth and EMT of laryngeal cancer cells in vivo.
conclusionMI restrains the progression of laryngeal cancer and induces an inhibitory effect on EMT in laryngeal cancer by modulating the NF-κB/Twist signaling. Our finding provides new insights into the mechanism by which MI inhibits laryngeal carcinoma development, enriching the understanding of the anti-tumor function of MI.
