Synthesis of Brominated Lactones Related to Mycalin A: Selective Antiproliferative Activity on Metastatic Melanoma Cells and Inhibition of the Cell Migration.
Article in Marine drugs, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Starting from D-xylonolactone and D-ribonolactone, several five-membered bromolactones, related to the C1-C5 portion of mycalin A lactone, have been synthesized. The bromination of D-ribonolactone with HBr/AcOH, without a subsequent transesterification step, has been studied for the first time, giving us most of the acetylated lactones investigated in the present study. For each compound, where possible, both the C-3 alcohol and the corresponding acetate were prepared. Evaluation of their anti-tumor activity showed that all the acetates possess a good cytotoxicity towards human melanoma (A375), human cervical adenocarcinoma (HeLa) and human metastatic melanoma (WM266) cancer cells, comparable or even higher than that displayed by the original mycalin A lactone. Lactone acetates derived from D-ribonolactone showed the higher selectivity of action, exhibiting a strong cytotoxicity on all the tested tumor cells but only a limited toxicity on healthy human dermal fibroblast (HDF) cells, used as a control. Wound healing assays showed that two of these substances inhibit the migration of the WM266 cells.
