Euphorbiasteroid Induces Apoptosis as Well as Autophagy through Modulating SHP-1/STAT3 Pathway in Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cells.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Euphorbiasteroid (EPBS) has gained attention for its activity against human lung cancer and sarcoma; however, its impact on hepatocellular carcinoma has not yet been elucidated. Here, we investigated the cytotoxic effect of EPBS on human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells. We found that EPBS induced both apoptosis and autophagy in HCC cells. Additionally, we observed that EPBS treatment suppressed the constitutive as well as the inducible activation of a signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) protein expression. Moreover, EPBS promoted the expression of SHP-1 protein and the production of reactive oxidative stress (ROS). Furthermore, the knockdown of SHP-1 by siRNA transfection reversed the effects of EPBS, which have inductive effects related to apoptosis and autophagy. Therefore, EPBS can potentially function as an anti-cancer agent by inducing apoptosis and autophagy when targeting the SHP-1/STAT3 pathway.
