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

backgroundTao Hong Si Wu Decoction (THSWD) is a well-known traditional Chinese medicine used clinically alone or combined with drugs to treat breast cancer. However, there has been no study to date on the underlying mechanisms of its therapeutic effects.

objectivesTo explore the potential mechanism of THSWD for the treatment of breast cancer using network pharmacology and experimental research.

methodsThe active ingredients of THSWD were screened according to Lipinski's rule of five based on the 107 ingredients of THSWD identified by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS

resultsIn total, 27 active ingredients including 8 core components, were obtained from 107 ingredients and 218 THSWD target genes for the treatment of breast cancer were identified. THSWD is active in the treatment of breast cancer by targeting Ras, FoxO, PI3K-Akt and other signaling pathways. MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cell proliferation was inhibited by THSWD serum in a time and concentration dependent manner. THSWD could regulated the RNA and protein expression of core targets HRAS, MAPK1, AKT1, GRB2, and MAPK14 for treatment of breast cancer.

conclusionThe results of network pharmacology study showed that THSWD is active against breast cancer by intervening with multiple targets and pathways. Luteolin, kaempferol, senkyunolide E, and other 8 compounds may be the core active ingredients of THSWD in the treatment of breast cancer. THSWD treatment of breast cancer may be related to targeting Ras, FoxO, PI3K-Akt, and other signal pathways associated with the core targets HRAS, MAPK1, AKT1, GRB2, and MAPK14.
