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

Despite the current developments in cancer therapeutics, efforts to excavate new anticancer agents continue rigorously due to obstacles, such as side effects and drug resistance. Anticancer peptides (ACPs) can be utilized to treat cancer because of their effectiveness on a variety of molecular targets, along with high selectivity and specificity for cancer cells. In the present study, a novel ACP was de novo designed using in silico methods, and its functionality and molecular mechanisms of action were explored. AC-P19M was discovered through functional prediction and sequence modification based on peptide sequences currently available in the database. The peptide exhibited anticancer activity against lung cancer cells, A549 and H460, by disrupting cellular membranes and inducing apoptosis while showing low toxicity towards normal and red blood cells. In addition, the peptide inhibited the migration and invasion of lung cancer cells and reversed epithelial-mesenchymal transition. Moreover, AC-P19M showed anti-angiogenic activity through the inhibition of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 signaling. Our findings suggest that AC-P19M is a novel ACP that directly or indirectly targets cancer cells, demonstrating the potential development of an anticancer agent and providing insights into the discovery of functional substances based on an in silico approach.
