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

Systemic toxicity due to chemotherapy contributes to poor prognosis in patients receiving chemotherapy. The present study, therefore, explores the role of Ellagic acid, a phytochemical, in modulating cisplatin (CP) toxicity in dimethylhydrazine-induced colorectal cancer. Colons excised from DMH administered animals showed abnormal crypts and bulges over the mucosal surface. SEM revealed significant alterations and dysplastic lesions in DMH administered mice. Animals receiving combined treatment showed improvement in colonic epithelium with lesser irregularities. DMH and CP administration disturbed the membrane dynamics and integrity as observed with the fluorescent probes DPH and pyrene. However, EA co-supplementation with CP proved to be beneficial in normalizing the altered membrane. Ellagic acid co-supplementation along with CP; therefore, showed great promise and helped restore the membrane alterations in the colon caused due to CP-induced toxicity and DMH insult. These observations could pave way towards developing a combination therapy targeting colon carcinogenesis in future.
