Astragaloside IV inhibits colorectal cancer metastasis by reducing extracellular vesicles release and suppressing M2-type TAMs activation.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers.
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
Ethnopharmacological relevance: Tumour-derived extracellular vesicles (TEVs) have been confirmed to facilitate colorectal cancer (CRC) metastasis by remodelling the tumour microenvironment (TME). Drugs targeted TEVs is considered as a promising therapeutic strategy for cancer treatment. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) plays a vital role in improving the prognosis of CRC patients and eventually CRC patients with distant metastasis. Although the anti-tumour effects of active compounds from TCM prescriptions are observed widely, the molecular mechanisms remain unknown. Aim of the study: This study aims to investigate the effects of active compounds in our library of TCM on preventing CRC metastasis, and also explore the potential mechanisms from the perspective of TEVs. Results: By screening our TCM monomer library, we found that ASIV, which is mainly extracted from Conclusions: ASIV inhibited CRC metastasis by reducing EVs release and suppressing M2-type TAMs activation. All these findings reveal a new insight into the mechanisms of ASIV in preventing CRC progression and provide a promising approach for anti-tumour therapy.
