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

Oral squamous cell carcinoma is characterized by the upregulation of RAC-alpha serine/threonine-protein kinase (Akt1) and RAC-beta serine/threonine-protein kinase (Akt2). In this work, Akt1 and Akt2 were inhibited using a cocktail of 20 marine algae chemicals. From the PyRx Virtual Screening Tool, dieckol, 6,6'-bieckol, siphonaxanthin and sargachromanol E were chosen as the best four compounds for Akt1 based on the scoring. Similarly, dieckol, 6,6'-bieckol, dioxinodehydroeckol and caulerpenyne were chosen as Akt2 inhibitors. Additionally, the results of the Lipinski rule of five indicated that some of the selected compounds, such as dieckol, 6,6'-bieckol and siphonaxanthin, violated some Lipinski rules, but they demonstrated excellent binding in terms of scoring. Thus, this study demonstrates that the identified lead compounds may act against Akt1 and Akt2 in oral cancer.
