Effect of fermentation on the constituents in the branches and leaves of
Article in Frontiers in pharmacology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a prominent lung cancer disease worldwide. Currently, commonly used methods, such as surgery and radiotherapy, have significant side effects. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has become a research hotspot because of its safe and effective characteristics. The branches and leaves of Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the antitumor activity of two samples before and after fermentation of Methods: The chemical composition of pre-fermentation Results: The results indicated that TM and TMQ contained 83 compounds, consisting primarily of flavonoids, organic acids, and taxanes. Both taxanes and flavonoids in TMQ were higher than that in TM. Both TM and TMQ effectively inhibited the tumor growth in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and the inhibition rate was greater in TMQ (57.24%) than in TM (49.62%). TMQ administration downregulated the tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and the glutathione (GSH) level and upregulated interferon-γ (IFN-γ), reactive oxygen species (ROS), and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in the serum of tumor mice. TMQ treatment also increased the protein expression of Bax, Caspase-3, and Beclin-1 in tumor tissues. In contrast, the bcl-2, PI3K, Ki67, ULK1, and mTOR protein levels were suppressed by TMQ. Protein assay analyses reemphasized the superior antitumor effect of TMQ over TM. These cumulative findings demonstrated that the mechanism of action of TMQ was closely related to the activation of transcriptional misregulation in the cancer pathway that inhibited the cholinergic synaptic, AMPK, and PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathways. Conclusion: This study demonstrated that fermentation increased the active ingredient contents and antitumor effects of
