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
Anti-leukemia activity of human macrophages involves the generation of nitric oxide (NO) derivatives. However, leukemic transformation may involve mechanisms that rescue cells from NO-mediated apoptosis. In the present work, we analyzed the effects of exogenous NO on the proliferation of BCR-ABL(+) chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) cells. As normal leukocytes, the proliferation of leukemia cells was inhibited by SNAP (S-nitroso-N-acetyl-penicillamine), GEA (Oxatriazolium amino-chloride), and SIN-1 (Morpholino-sydnonimine), whereas SNP (sodium nitroprusside) had no effect on leukemia cell growth. SIN-1 induced higher anti-proliferation activity in BCR-ABL(+) cells, compared to normal hemopoietic cells. Inhibition of leukemia cell proliferation correlated with increased apoptosis and DEVDase activity. The simultaneous addition of exogenous iron reversed NO-mediated inhibition of cell growth, caspase activation and apoptosis in all BCR-ABL(+) cells tested. The quantification of intracellular iron levels in leukemia cells indicated that NO induced an early, dose-dependent decrease in ferric iron levels. Accordingly, elevation of intracellular iron protected leukemia cells from NO-mediated apoptosis. Together, the present work reveals the presence of an iron-dependant mechanism for leukemia cell rescue from NO-induced growth inhibition and apoptosis.
