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

objectivesGentiopicroside is an effective treatment for several types of cancer, inducing numerous forms of programmed cancer cell death. However, there are few investigations into the role of necroptosis. By utilizing molecular docking, and experimental validation, this study aims to investigate whether gentiopicroside elicits necroptosis in gastric cancer.

methodsUsing software PyMOL and AutoDock, gentiopicroside was docked with RIPK1, RIPK3, MLKL and HIF-1α proteins. And a cell study was performed based on SGC7901 cells. The necroptosis-related proteins and HIF-1 signaling pathways were explored using western blot (WB) analysis. Finally, an animal study was performed to test the inhibitory effect in vivo.

resultsDocking studies indicated that the docking energies of gentiopicroside to necroptosis-related proteins and necroptosis-characteristic proteins are all below -5 kcal/mol. Additionally, gentiopicroside cells reduce gastric cancer viability and inhibit proliferation. Results from the animal experiments indicated that gentiopicroside inhibits the growth of the gastric cancer xenograft tumor. Western blot and immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining demonstrated that gentiopicroside higher p-receptor-interacting protein kinase 3(p-RIPK3) levels in vitro and in vivo.

conclusionThe findings of this study revealed that necroptosis is involved in the inhibitory effect of gentiopicroside toward gastric cancer.
