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

Background: Curcumin (Cur) is a natural phytochemical that is expected to become an indispensable drug for the treatment of colorectal cancer. A comprehensive understanding of the anti-tumor mechanism of Cur will provide a better reference for its clinical application. This study aimed to examine the effects of extracellular vesicles (EVs) isolated from Cur-medium on RKO colorectal cancer cell proliferation, apoptosis, and migration. Methods: RKO cells were cultured in various concentrations of Cur-medium, and the EVs were isolated from the Cur-medium. The EVs were identified by transmission electron microscopy and western blotting. The effects of the EVs on RKO cell proliferation, apoptosis, and migration were analyzed, as was the expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), Bax, vimentin, and E-cadherin. The expression of nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) p65 in the EVs was also detected. Results: Our results showed that the EVs isolated from the Cur-medium weakened RKO cell proliferation and migration but had no effect on cell apoptosis. Cur suppressed the expression of NF-κB p65 in the EVs. Overall, this study revealed that Cur exerts anti-tumor effects by suppressing NF-κB p65 in EVs to weaken RKO cell proliferation and migration. Conclusions: In conclusion, the packaging of Cur into EVs is expected to become an indispensable treatment of colorectal cancer in the future.
