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
objectiveTo observe the anticancer effects of the granular preparation of Tenglong Buzhong decoction (,TBD), i.e Tenglong Buzhong granules (, TBG), in human SW620 colon cancer.
methodsBALB/c nude mice were subcutaneously transplanted with SW620 cells, and treated with TBG (2.56 g/kg, once per day) and/or 5-Fu (104 mg/kg, once per week) for 21 d. Apoptosis, Caspase activities and cellular senescence were measured by commercial kits. The protein expression and phosphorylation were detected by Western blot or immunohistochemistry.
resultsTBG and 5-Fu inhibited tumor growth. The tumor inhibition rate of the TBG, 5-Fu, and TBG+5-Fu groups was 42.25%, 51.58%, and 76.08%, respectively. Combination of TBG and 5-Fu showed synergetic anti-cancer effects. TBG and 5-Fu induced apoptosis, activated caspase-3, -8, and -9, increased SMAC expression, inhibited XIAP expression. TBG induced cellular senescence, upregulated cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1a (CDKN1a) and cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2a (CDKN2a) expression, and inhibited phosphorylation of retinoblastoma-associated protein (RB) and expression of cyclin E1 (CCNE1) and cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK) 2. TBG also inhibited angiogenesis accompanied by downregulation of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α).
conclusionsTBG inhibits SW620 colon cancer growth, induces apoptosis SMAC-XIAP-Caspases signaling, induces cellular senescence through CDKN1a/CDKN2a-RB-E2F signaling, inhibits angiogenesis by down-regulation of HIF-1α and VEGF, and enhances the effects of 5-Fu.
