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

Cancer is one of the most causes of death all over the world, although improvements in its treatment and recognition. Due to the limitations of common anticancer methods, including surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy, attention has been drawn to other anti-cancer compounds, especially natural peptides such as bacteriocins. In this study, we used a combination of two bacteriocins, colicin E1 and enterocin A, against AGS gastric cancer cell lines. In order to evaluate anticancer properties of fusion peptide, we applied MTT assay, real-time PCR, and flow cytometry tests. This is the first report to show the cell growth inhibitory activity of the enterocin A in combination with colicin E1 against AGS human cancer cells. The results of this study showed that this fusion peptide at a concentration of 60.4 µg/mL and 24 h was able to kill half of the tested cancer cells, and treatment of the cells with this concentration increased the expression of bax and caspase 3 genes and reduced the expression of bacl-2 in 24 h. Flow cytometry analysis of annexin V-FITC/propidium iodide results also showed that our peptide was able to induce apoptosis in treated cells compared with control. Taken together, enterocin A-colicin E1 (ent A-col E1) can be considered as a good candidate for anticancer therapies.
