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

Quercetin has been documented to possess a multitude of pharmacological effects, encompassing antioxidant, antiviral, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory properties. Nevertheless, the exact molecular mechanisms responsible for the anti-tumor properties of quercetin remain to be fully explicated. To this end, quercetin was administered to gastric cancer cells (in vitro) AGS and MKN45, as well as BALB/c mice (in vivo). The proliferation ability of cells was evaluated using cholecystokinin octapeptide (CCK-8) and colony formation assays. The evaluation of ferroptosis involved the measurement of iron, malondialdehyde (MDA), and lipid reactive oxygen species. Autophagy and apoptosis were evaluated using immunofluorescence staining, western blotting, and flow cytometry analysis. Our findings indicate that quercetin significantly inhibited cell viability and tumor volume compared to the control group. Additionally, quercetin was found to decrease glutathione (GSH), malondialdehyde, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels while suppressing beclin1 and LC3B levels in cancer cells. Remarkably, the utilization of siATG5 was found to reverse all the aforementioned effects of quercetin. Ultimately, the effects of quercetin on gastric cancer were validated. In summary, our findings provide evidence that quercetin facilitates autophagy-mediated ferroptosis in gastric cancer.
