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

Objectives: Targeting the lytic cycle of the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) has been considered a new treatment strategy for malignancies caused by this virus. This study aimed to investigate the effect of Dendrosomal NanoCurcumin (DNC) to prevent cell transformation and inhibit the expression of viral lytic gene expression in the generation of lymphoblastoid cell line (LCL). Materials and Methods: Cell viability of LCLs and PBMCs was performed by MTT assay, and flow cytometry (Annexin/PI) was used for evaluation of apoptosis. CD markers on the surface of generated LCL (CD19) cells were examined for cell validation. The effect of DNC on transformation was evaluated by examining cell morphology and determining the expression level of lytic genes BZLF1, Zta, BHRF1, and BRLF1 of EBV using Real-time PCR. Student's t-test was used for statistical analysis. Results: The MTT assay showed that DNC can inhibit the proliferation of LCL in a dose-dependent manner. The 50% cytotoxic concentration (CC Conclusion: Overall, these findings show that DNC reduces the expression of the viral lytic cycle genes and also the induction of cell apoptosis and finally prevents the generation of LCL.
