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

backgroundLeiomyoma (LM) is the most commonly identified tumor in the genital tract, occurring in 70-80% of women. The only treatment option is surgery, which significantly influences healthcare costs and negatively influences women's survival and reproductive capacity. Therefore, identifying safe and effective chemopreventive and treatment modalities is needed.

methodsWe investigated the effects of 12 months of daily curcumin (0, 25.8, and 53 mg/kg) diet on the incidence and growth of spontaneously developing LM tumors in a galline (hen) model.

resultsLM tumors were detected in 58.9% (53/90) of the control hens as spontaneous occurrences, while they were observed in 37.7% (34/90) and 24.5% (22/90) of hens treated with daily doses of 25.8 mg or 53.0 mg, respectively, over 12 months. This reduced LM development by 35% and 58.5%, respectively (

conclusionsThe findings suggest that daily curcumin consumption significantly reduces the incidence of naturally occurring LMs and suppresses tumor growth. This indicates that regular curcumin intake may be an effective preventive measure against LMs.
