The Interventional Effects and Mechanisms of Lonidamine in Combination with Apigenin on Colorectal Cancer.

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
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second most prevalent cancer globally and remains a significant cause of cancer-related mortality. The limited efficacy and toxicities of conventional therapies underscore the urgent need for novel treatments. Lonidamine (LND), a synthetic indazole-3-carboxylic acid derivative, possesses anticancer properties, yet its clinical use is limited by toxic side effects. Apigenin (AP), a naturally occurring flavonoid present in a variety of fruits and vegetables, has been observed to enhance the efficacy of conventional chemotherapy regimens while mitigating associated side effects. In this study, we explored the potential synergistic anticancer effects and mechanisms of combining LND with AP in colon cancer cell lines MC38 and CT26. The results showed that LND and AP in combination synergistically inhibited the growth of colon cancer cells. In vitro, the combination therapy inhibited cell migration, induced cell cycle arrest in the G2/M phase, and promoted apoptosis by downregulating Bcl-2 and upregulating Bax expression. It disrupted glycolysis by reducing HK2 and GLUT1 expression, resulting in decreased glucose consumption and lactate production. Additionally, our findings suggested that the co-administration led to nucleotide depletion and disrupted NAD
