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

Introduction: The development of novel targeted therapies for hepatocellular carcinoma remains a critical need in oncology. This study aimed to design and evaluate a new series of triazole-urea hybrid compounds for their anti-cancer potential. Methods: A series of urea compounds bearing terminal alkynyl groups were synthesized Results: Most compounds exhibited potent, concentration- and time-dependent anti-proliferative activity against Huh-7 liver cancer cells, with only marginal effects on other tested cancer lines. Crucially, no cytotoxicity was observed in normal L02 cells. Mechanistic studies revealed that the lead compound induced apoptosis, autophagy, and DNA damage in Huh-7 cells. The in vivo assay demonstrated no drug-related mortality or significant adverse effects on body weight, organ coefficients, or histology at 500 mg/kg over 14 days, indicating a high maximum tolerated dose and an excellent preliminary safety profile. Conclusion: These findings demonstrate the selective anti-liver cancer efficacy and favorable in vivo safety of these triazole-urea hybrids, particularly compound
