Traditional Chinese Medicine Xihuang Wan Inhibited Lewis Lung Carcinoma in a Syngeneic Model, Equivalent to Cytotoxic Chemotherapy, by Altering Multiple Signaling Pathways.

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
BACKGROUND/
aimXihuang Wan (XHW), a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), has been used in China for a variety of cancers including lung cancer. The present study evaluated the efficacy of XHW on a Lewis lung mouse model and explored the potential mechanism via transcriptomics. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe mice were randomized into 6 groups: 1) untreated control (n=10); 2) low-dose XHW; 3) medium-dose XHW; 4) high-dose XHW; 5) cisplatin; and 6) untreated blank (n=4). Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC) cells were injected subcutaneously except for the 4 mice in the blank group. The body weight and tumor length and width were measured every 3 days. RNA-sequencing was performed on tumors in the high-dose XHW group and the control group.
resultsXHW inhibited the growth of LLC in a syngeneic mouse model, without toxicity, with equivalent efficacy to cisplatin. RNA-sequencing demonstrated that many signaling pathways were involved in XHW-mediated inhibition of LLC, including tumor necrosis factor, estrogen, cyclic guanosine 3', 5'-monophosphate-protein kinase G, apelin and the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor signaling pathways.
conclusionXHW inhibited LLC carcinoma through different pathways and shows clinical promise for patients who cannot tolerate platinum-based drugs.
