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

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) represents aggressive phenotype with limited treatment options due to the lack of drug targets. Natural compounds are extensively studied regarding their potential to alter the efficacy of cancer treatment Among them sulforaphane - an isothiocyanate of natural origin, was shown to be a hormetic compound, that may exert divergent effects: cytoprotective or cytotoxic depending on its concentrations. Thus, the aim of this study was to determine the effect of its low, dietary concentrations on the proliferation and migration of the TNBC cells in the in vivo and in vitro 2D and 3D model. Results of the in vivo experiment showed up to 31% tumor growth inhibition after sulforaphane treatment associated with lowered proliferating potential of cancer cells, reduced areas of necrosis, and changed immune cell type infiltration, showing less malignant type of tumor in contrast to the non-treated group. Also, the study revealed that sulforaphane decreased the number of lung metastases. The in vitro study confirmed that SFN inhibited cell migration, but only in cells derived from 3D spheroids, not from 2D in vitro cultures. The results show a specific role of sulforaphane in the case of cells released from the TNBC primary tumor and its environment.
