Effect of luteolin on apoptosis and vascular endothelial growth factor in human choroidal melanoma cells.
Article in International journal of ophthalmology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
aimTo investigate the effects of luteolin on apoptosis, the cell cycle, and the expression and secretion of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in human choroidal melanoma cells (C918 and OCM-1).
methodsC918 and OCM-1 cells cultured
resultsAfter treating with 5 to 15 µmol/L luteolin for 48h, the fusion degree of C918 and OCM-1 cells decreased, and more floating apoptotic cells appeared. Luteolin treatment increased the G0-G1 phase ratio of the C918 and OCM-1 cells, blocked cell cycle progression, and increased the apoptosis rate of the C918 and OCM-1 cells. Western blot showed that luteolin decreased the expression of Bcl-2 and VEGF in the C918 and OCM-1 cells and increased the expression of Bax protein. The ELISA results showed that 10 to 15 µmol/L luteolin decreased the cell secretion of VEGF.
conclusionLuteolin may induce apoptosis by regulating the levels of apoptosis-related proteins in C918 and OCM-1 cells. Luteolin can induce cell cycle arrest, decrease the expression of VEGF.
