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

purposeThe potential effects of bergamotiin (BGM) on the suppression of cancer cachexia was evaluated under in vitro and in vivo conditions to investigate its possible inhibitory effects on the muscle and fat loss.

methodThe differentiated C2C12 and 3T3L1 cells were treated with BGM after the induction of cancer-cachexia with pancreatic cancer conditioned media (CM). The expression levels of the various molecules involved in the differentiation and loss of muscle and fat (MuRF-1, Atrogin-1, C/EBPα, and PPARγ) were analyzed by Western blot and oil red O staining. For in vivo experiment, MIA PaCa-2 cells were injected into the mice (

resultBGM displayed a significant effect on the inhibition of muscle and fat catabolism under both in vitro and in vivo conditions. The results of the in vivo experiment revealed a remarkable suppressive effect of BGM on the weight loss in mice.

conclusionsThe potential effects of BGM on the inhibition of muscle and fat catabolism in vitro and in vivo were thus confirmed. Based on the results, the impact of BGM on cancer cachexia could be possibly analyzed in the future clinical studies.
