The Apoptotic Property of Nymphaea Caerulea Flower Extract on Acute Myeloid Leukaemia Cell Line, THP-1.

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
backgroundAcute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML) is considered to be an extremely heterogeneous malignancy of bone marrow and blood. The first line of therapy for AML is prolonged chemotherapy. Due to the presence of molecular heterogeneity in AML as confirmed by next-generation sequencing, researchers are planning to develop newer strategies of therapy.
objectiveIn the present study we have explored the anti-cancer potentiality of the hydro-ethanolic extract (50% and 70%) of the whole flower of Nymphaea caerulea against the Acute Myeloid Leukaemia cell line, THP-1 with control of normal human kidney epithelial cell line (HEK 293). The present study is a novel contribution to the existing scientific knowledge as at present no study as an anti-leukaemic agent is available on N. caerulea (blue lotus) extract and exploring its action mechanism on in-vitro cell line model.
methodsSome targeted cytokine and apoptotic genes genes to deduce the anti-cancer mechanism of action of the crude extract (hydro-ethanolic extract (50% and 70%) of the whole flower) were selected as Interferon (IFN) γ, Interleukins - IL-6, IL-8, IL- 10, IL-1β, Transforming Growth Factor (TGF β1), Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF α), Caspase 3(CAS 3), Caspase 9 (CAS 9), CD95 (Fas), Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor 1 (TNFRSF1A) to observe relative fold changes of the expression using Real-Time PCR with housekeeping gene β-actin. Cellular cytopathic effect (CPE), cell viability assay by methylene blue assay, and cell cytotoxicity of the crude extract against the THP-1 cell line were also studied along with it's bio-active compositional analysis of the extract was explored using ultra-performance liquid chromatography followed by mass spectra.
resultsThe N. caerulea flower extract is capable of inducing apoptosis in AML and it can balance cytokine alterations in such diseases.
conclusionsNymphaea caerulea flower extract appears to be a good anti-leukemia agent.
