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

purposeColorectal cancer (CRC) is the most common malignant tumor with a persistently high mortality rate worldwide. This study aimed to explore the anti-CRC effect and mechanisms of Ruditapes philippinarum polysaccharides (RPP).

methodsWe used HT-29 cells and HT-29 tumor-bearing mice to study the anti-CRC effects and mechanisms of RPP in vitro and in vivo.

resultsAnimal experiments demonstrated that RPP-treated groups increased expression levels of Bax and cleaved caspase-3 proteins while reducing expression levels of Bcl-2 and Clusterin proteins in mice bearing HT-29 tumors. These results suggested the potential involvement of the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway in HT-29 cells apoptosis. Meanwhile, expression levels of β-catenin and its subsequent target proteins, such as Survivin, C-myc, and Cyclin D1, were suppressed, suggesting that RPP arrested the cell cycle of HT-29 cells in the G0/G1 phase by inhibiting the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. Additionally, RPP suppressed levels of TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β, and then alleviated the inflammatory response.

conclusionOverall, these findings could provide a new insight that RPP are promising polysaccharides to combat CRC as drugs or preventive health products.
