The Distinct Biological Effects of 6-Hydroxy-L-Nicotine in Representative Cancer Cell Lines.
Article in Molecules (Basel, Switzerland), 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
6-hydroxy-L-nicotine (6HLN) is a nicotine (NIC) derivative with proven therapeutic potential in neurodegenerative disorders. Here, the impact of 6HLN on cell growth, migratory behavior, and inflammatory status of three different cancer cell lines (A549, MCF7, and U87) and two normal cell lines (16HBE14o and MCF10A) was investigated. In silico analyses were conducted to evaluate the binding affinity of 6HLN to nicotinic receptors (nAChRs) containing α9 and α5 subunits. The obtained in silico data revealed that 6HLN might act on the cholinergic system. Interestingly, the in vitro data showed the compound has cancer-stimulatory effects in U87 glioblastoma cells and cancer-inhibitory effects in MCF7 breast cancer cells. In A549 lung cancer cells, no changes were detected upon 6HLN administration. More importantly, 6HLN appears not to be deleterious for normal cells, with the viability of 16HBE14o pulmonary cells and MCF10A mammary cells remaining unchanged.
