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

Epothilones were designated as one of the most recognized chemotherapeutic agents towards the drug-resistant tumors, for their higher potency to bind and stabilize the β-tubulin arrays, stopping the cell cycle. Epothilones were chemically resolved from Aspergillus fumigatus # MN744705.1, that being more affordable source than Sorangium cellulosum, for its rapid growth and unique biological behaviour. So, the aim of this work was to emphasize the chemical identity and efficacy of Aspergillus fumigatus Epothilone. The Epothilone structure of A. fumigatus was determined by HPLC, FT-IR, LC-MS analyses, with 507.7 m/z, compared to the authentic one of S. cellulosum. Aspergillus fumigatus epothilone B had the highest activity against HepG-2 (IC
