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

A diverse range of α-cyano bis(indolyl)chalcones (21a-r) were synthesized in high yields (90-95%) through the l-proline catalysed reaction of appropriate aldehydes and 3-cyanoacetylindoles. Formation of α-cyano bis(indolyl)chalcones involves readily available starting materials, catalytic l-proline, environmentally benign and metal-free conditions. The prepared eighteen α-cyano bis(indolyl)chalcones 21a-r were screened against prostate, breast, epithelial cancer cells and found to be non-cytotoxic to normal HEK293 cells. The α-cyano bis(indolyl)chalcones 21a (3.9 μM), 21c (7.5 μM), 21i (2.2 μM) and 21o (5.9 μM) displayed good cytotoxicity against C4-2 cells, whereas, derivatives 21c (1.23 μM), 21h (5.23 μM), and 21l (2.5 μM) showed selective cytotoxicity against 22Rv1 cells. With broad spectrum of activity (0.98-5.6 μM), the compound 21j was found to increase the endogenous level of ROS, upregulate the level of p-53 and c-jun besides mitochondrial dysfunction, cause apoptosis.
