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

Aim: This study aims to investigate the anticancer molecular mechanism of RT2 through protein-protein interaction (PPI) network analysis. For this aim, a bioinformatics evaluation of the proteome profile of colon cancer is carried out. Background: Antimicrobial peptides such as RT2 showed anticancer properties against various tumors. The molecular mechanism of the anticancer effect of RT2 is a challenging subject. Methods: By applying Cytoscape V.3.9.1 and integrated apps, the profile of the interaction network and related centrality is analyzed. An enrichment analysis of hub bottlenecks was also performed, and highlighted biological processes were visualized and determined. Results: Several 207 differentially expressed proteins were retrieved by PPI network analysis, and 10 hub bottlenecks were introduced. Among these differentially expressed proteins (DEPs), only AKT1 is from the queried DEPs. Key biological processes contributing to RT2 targeting mechanism include "Regulation of fibroblast proliferation", "Positive regulation of cyclin-dependent protein serine/threonine kinase activity", "positive regulation of miRNA transcription", and "fungiform papilla formation". Conclusion: In conclusion, central proteins Tp53, MYC, EGFR, AKT1, HDAC1, and SRC can be introduced as a targeted biomarker panel of bioactive peptide treatments. However, extensive research is required to establish this claim before clinical application.
