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

backgroundCholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a neglected disease prevalent in developing countries with high burden and mortality rate, and there is no effective treatment. We aimed to investigate β-eudesmol molecular target of action in human CCA cell lines using the selected key molecules of apoptotic pathways. MATERIALS AND

methodsTwo CCA cell lines (HuH28 and HuCCT1) were assessed at different time points after β-eudesmol treatment for mRNA and protein expression profiles of

resultsβ-eudesmol induced expressions of p21 and p53 in mRNA/protein level in HuH28 and HuCCT1 cells. These CCA cells also expressed caspase-3, -8, -9 and bax (mRNA and/or protein level) among others after β-eudesmol treatment indicating its role in both intrinsic and extrinsic caspase-dependent apoptotic pathways.

conclusionThe study demonstrated that β-eudesmol induced the expression of apoptosis pathway proteins, suggesting its potential role in promoting the caspase-dependent apoptotic pathway, and induction of the cell cycle arrest in CCA cell lines. β-eudesmol can be considered as a potential compound for further investigation as an anti-CCA agent.
