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
backgroundAstragaloside IV (AS-IV) is one of the basic components of Astragali radix, that has been shown to have preventive effects against various diseases, including cancers. This study aimed to explore the role of AS-IV in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and its underlying mechanism.
methodsThe cell viability, glucose consumption, lactate production, and extracellular acidification rate (ECAR) in SNU-182 and Huh7 cell lines were detected by specific commercial kits. Western blot was performed to analyze the succinylation level in SNU-182 and Huh7 cell lines. The interaction between lysine acetyltransferase (KAT) 2 A and phosphoglycerate mutase 1 (PGAM1) was evaluated by co-immunoprecipitation and immunofluorescence assays. The role of KAT2A in vivo was explored using a xenografted tumor model.
resultsThe results indicated that AS-IV treatment downregulated the protein levels of succinylation and KAT2A in SNU-182 and Huh7 cell lines. The cell viability, glucose consumption, lactate production, ECAR, and succinylation levels were decreased in AS-IV-treated SNU-182 and Huh7 cell lines, and the results were reversed after KAT2A overexpression. KAT2A interacted with PGAM1 to promote the succinylation of PGAM1 at K161 site. KAT2A overexpression promoted the viability and glycolysis of SNU-182 and Huh7 cell lines, which were partly blocked following PGAM1 inhibition. In tumor-bearing mice, AS-IV suppressed tumor growth though inhibiting KAT2A-mediated succinylation of PGAM1.
conclusionAS-IV inhibited cell viability and glycolysis in HCC by regulating KAT2A-mediated succinylation of PGAM1, suggesting that AS-IV might be a potential and suitable therapeutic agent for treating HCC.
