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

Ten chaetoglobosin alkaloids were isolated from the fermentation culture of a soil-derived fungus, Chaetomium sp., and their structures with absolute configurations were characterized by spectroscopic methods including high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), X-ray diffraction analysis, and electronic circular dichroism, as well as comparison with literature data. Among them, three compounds (1-3) have not been described previously, and compound 8 is reported for the first time as a new natural product. A preliminary cytostatic screening revealed good inhibitory activity for 1, 6, and 8 against the A549 cell line (lung), and for 1, 2, 4, 6, and 8 against the MDA-MB231 cell line (breast). Further exploration demonstrated that compound 8 exerted in vitro antitumor activity by inducing significant apoptosis and S-phase cycle arrest, as well as blocking the migration and invasion of MDA-MB231 cells.
