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

Background: There are growing evidences related with critical role of non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), oncogenes, and microRNAs (miRNAs) in pathogenesis and metastatic capacity of Colorectal Cancer (CRC). This study aimed to elucidate the pro-apoptotic and anti-metastatic effect of Noscapine as alkaloid compound in addition its effect on CCAT2, miR-218-5p, MYC, and GLI in Caco-2 CRC cells. Methods: Caco-2 cells were exposed to increasing concentrations of Noscapine (10-100 Results: The MTT assay showed the dose and time dependent attenuation of Caco-2 cells survival rate compared to the control. Comet assay demonstrated significant DNA damage in treated cells. The flow cytometry indicated cell cycle arrest at the G0/G1 phase and late apoptotic and necrotic cell increment. The scratch assay confirmed impaired migration, with markedly reduced wound closure in IC50 treated group. The qRT-PCR showed that in contrast to remarkable up-regulation of miRNA 218 (*p<0.05), the level of CCAT2 (*p<0.05), MYC (**p<0.01) and GLI1 (**p<0.01) was significantly diminished in Noscapine treated cells. Conclusion: Noscapine exhibited anti-proliferative and anti-migratory effects in Caco-2 CRC cells, which are associated with altered expression of
