Maslinic Acid Inhibits the Growth of Malignant Gliomas by Inducing Apoptosis via MAPK Signaling.
Article in Journal of oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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: Gliomas are primary malignant brain tumors. Despite recent advances in surgery and clinical neuro-oncology, the prognosis of patients with glioma is still poor. Therefore, there is an urgent need to find new therapeutic drugs. Methods: Here, we have studied the anticancer effect of maslinic acid in glioma and explored its potential molecular mechanism. CCK-8, Ki67 immunofluorescence, and colony formation tests are used to detect the proliferation of glioma cells. Transwell and migration experiments are used to detect the function of cell invasion and migration, and RNA-seq was performed to identify differentially expressed genes. Western blot analysis helps us identify important signaling pathways. Finally, the anticancer effect of maslinic acid was confirmed in vivo through tumor xenografting experiments. Results: Our experiments obtained high-throughput data on the treatment of maslinic acid in glioma. We found that maslinic acid significantly inhibits the proliferation, invasion, and migration of glioma cells and promotes the apoptosis of glioma cells via suppressing MAPK signaling. Conclusions: This is the first time to analyze the mechanism of maslinic acid against glioma based on transcription. Our experiments show that maslinic acid may be a useful natural product for the treatment of glioma.
