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

Many pyridopyrimidine moieties linked to the coumarin ring were synthesized by the reaction of malononitrile with 7-hydroxy-4-methyl-2-oxo-2 H-chromene-8-carbaldehyde (2) directly in the presence of ammonium acetate and different ketones and studied the effect of other basic catalysis, ratio of reactants and the effect of the solvent. The newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxic activity against four cell lines namely HepG2, WI-38, VERO, and MCF-7. The cytotoxic activity showed that compounds 8, 9, 10, and 7 have the highest activity against the studied cell lines. Focusing on the binding affinity and interactions between the five synthesized derivatives with the highest anticancer activity and specific amino acids of 4HJO residues over the molecular docking analysis. Derivative 10 recorded the highest energy score with good RMSD compared to the rest of the derivatives.
