Isoalantolactone induces the apoptosis of oxaliplatin-resistant human colorectal cancer cells mediated by ROS generation and activation of JNK and p38 MAPK.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Treating colorectal cancer (CRC) poses challenges due to the lack of specific molecular targets. Although oxaliplatin (Ox) is commonly used to treat CRC, resistance frequently develops, necessitating the discovery of new therapeutics. This study explored the anticancer effects of Isoalantolactone (IAL) on human CRC cells HCT116 and Ox-resistant HCT116 (HCT116-OxR). Apoptosis, ROS generation, cell cycle distribution, mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), and caspase activation were assessed through flow cytometry. Protein levels were determined by Western blot analysis. IAL reduced cell viability, measured by MTT assay, and inhibited anchorage-independent colony formation in CRC cells in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. The IC
