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

backgroundTo a certain extent, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM)-based anesthesia has replaced opiate administration in recent years. Preliminary drug screening has revealed that scopolamine may affect breast cancer (BC) metastasis by an unknown mechanism.

methodsNetwork pharmacology, bioinformatics, and protein-protein interaction (PPI) topological analysis were implemented to identify the core genes linking scopolamine and BC. The core genes were then subjected to gene expression profiling interactive analysis (GEPIA). The top ten pathways were detected by gene ontology (GO) enrichment and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analyses. The impact of immune infiltration on the core gene difference and survival analyses was then determined. Molecular docking was then performed on the core genes and the main active components.

results

conclusionScopolamine has multiple targets regulating BC cell function and may increase the risk of metastasis during treatment. Therefore, it should be preoperatively administered with caution to patients with BC.
