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
backgroundThere are many current scientific reports on the synthesis of various derivatives modelled on the structure of known small-molecular and natural bioactive compounds. Curcuminoid chalcones are an innovative class of compounds with significant therapeutic potential against various diseases and they perfectly fit into the current trends in the search for new biologically active substances.
aimThe aim of this study was to design and synthesise a series of curcuminoid chalcones.
objectiveThe objective of this scientific paper was to synthesise twelve curcuminoid chalcones and confirm their structures using spectral methods. Additionally, the biological activity of three of the synthesised compounds was evaluated using various assays, and their anticancer properties and toxicity were studied.
methodsThe proposed derivatives were obtained via the Claisen-Schmidt reaction of selected acetophenones and aldehydes in various conditions using both classical methods: the solutions and solvent-free microwave (MW) or ultrasound (US) variants. The most optimal synthetic method for the selected curcuminoid chalcones was the classical Claisen-Schmidt condensation in an alkaline (NaOH) medium. Spectral methods were used to confirm the structures of the compounds. The resazurin reduction assay, caspase-3 activity assay, and RT-qPCR method were performed, followed by measurements of the intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) level and the lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release level.
resultsTwelve designed curcuminoid chalcones were successfully synthesized and structurally confirmed by NMR, MS, and IR spectroscopy. Examination of the anticancer activity was carried out for the three most interesting chalcone products.
conclusionThe results suggested that compound 3a increased the metabolism and/or proliferation of the human colon carcinoma (Caco-2) cell line, while compounds 3b and 3f showed significant toxicity against the Caco-2 cell line. Overall, the preliminary results suggested that compound 3b exhibited the most favourable anticancer activity.
