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
Cryptotanshinone is known for its inhibitory activity against tumorigenesis in various human cancer cells. However, exact mechanisms underlying the anticancer effects of cryptotanshinone are not fully elucidated. Here, we propose a plausible molecular mechanism, wherein cryptotanshinone represses rapamycin-sensitive mTORC1/S6K1 mediated cancer cell growth and cell transformation. We investigated the various effects of cryptotanshinone on the mTORC1/S6K1 axis, which is associated with the regulation of cell growth in response to nutritional and growth factor signals. We found that cryptotanshinone specifically inhibited the mTORC1-mediated phosphorylation of S6K1, which consequently suppressed the clonogenicity of SK-Hep1 cells and the neoplastic transformation of JB6 Cl41 cells induced by insulin-like growth factor-1. Finally, we observed that cryptotanshinone prevented S6K1 from binding to the Raptor/mTOR complex, rather than regulating mTOR and its upstream pathway. Overall, our findings provide a novel mechanism underlying anti-cancer effects cryptotanshinone targeting mTORC1 signaling, contributing to the development of anticancer agents involving metabolic cancer treatment.
