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

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) has few or no symptoms and is often diagnosed at its end stage. Boeravinone B (BB) is a natural rotenoid which induces an antioxidative effect and has been used in cancer prevention. In this study, we scrutinized the chemoprotective effect of BB against 1,2dimethyl hydrazine (DMH) induced CRC in rats. Methods: Subcutaneous administration of DMH (40 mg/kg) was used for the induction of CRC in rats, followed by oral administration of BB. The body weight, tumor volume, tumor incidence, and total number of tumors were estimated in all rat groups rats except the normal group. Antioxidant parameters, phase I and II enzymes, and inflammatory cytokines and parameters were estimated at the completion of the study. Results: DMH induced group rats exhibited a tumor incidence of 100% along with several tumors/polyps per tumor‑bearing rat, while BB treatment remarkably suppressed the incidence of tumors and suppressed polyps per tumor bearing rat. BB treatment significantly (P<0.001) altered the level of antioxidant parameters, phase I and phase II enzymes, and cytokines such as TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-4, IL-6, and IL-10, and treatment significantly (P<0.001) suppressed the level of inflammatory cytokines, including cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), prostaglandin E Conclusions: BB treatment considerably suppresses colon cancer via its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory mechanism.
