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

introductionOur group previously reported isatin-based hydrazones (ISB1-ISB6) were further evaluated for their in vitro acetylcholine esterase, butylcholinestrase and cytotoxic effects on cancer cell lines. The compounds successfully suppressed AChE and BChE, with Ki values ranging from 1.06±0.07 to 23.57±1.64 nM for AChE and 15.31±1.28 to 84.41±8.04 nM for BChE. However, the IC50 values of these compounds for AChE and BChE were found to be in the ranges of 1.45-25.51 nM and 16.38-92.90 nM, respectively.

methodFurthermore, to explore the anti-tumor potential of our newly synthesized compounds, we conducted a cytotoxic MTT assay to assess their impact on two different cancer cell lines: MCF7 and A2780. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: Our findings highlight diverse cytotoxic profiles among the compounds. Specifically, ISB2, ISB3, and ISB4 demonstrated potential cytotoxicity in the A2780 cell line, while ISB6 exhibited significant cytotoxicity in the MCF7 cell line. This suggests that these compounds have different effects on cancer cell types, indicating the need for further investigation into their potential applications in cancer therapy.

conclusionFinally, molecular docking and dynamic study revealed that lead molecule ISB3 provides stability in the AChE and BChE protein-ligand complex.
