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
The therapeutic usefulness of the quinoxaline derivatives XK469 (2-{4-[(7-chloro-2-quinoxalinyl)oxy]phenoxy}propionic acid) and SH80 (2-{4-[(7-bromo-2-quinolinyl)oxy]phenoxy}propionic acid) has been attributed to their abilities to induce G(2)/M arrest and apoptotic or autophagic cell death. Concentrations of XK469 or SH80 > or = 5 microM were cytostatic to cultures of the normal murine melanocyte cell line Melan-a. Higher concentrations caused dose-dependent cytotoxicity. Concentrations > or =10 microM provoked dramatic morphological changes typified by marked increases in cell size and granularity. XK469/SH80-treated cultures accumulated tetraploid (4N) DNA-containing cells within 24 h of treatment, an 8N population within 3 days, and a 16N population within 5 days. Increases in ploidy correlated with the appearance of multinucleated cells. Under no circumstances did cells exhibit evidence of furrow formation. Both drugs suppressed cytokinesis in additional mammalian cell lines. Cytotoxic concentrations of XK469 elevated DEVDase activities (a measure of procaspase-3/7 activation) and enhanced cellular staining by a fluorescent analog of the pan caspase inhibitor valine-alanine-aspartic acid-fluoromethyl ketone within 48 to 96 h of treatment. Within 48 h of treatment, cytostatic and cytotoxic concentrations of XK469 elevated p21 contents, reduced Bcl-2 and Bcl-XL contents, and induced autophagy, as monitored by the accumulation of phosphatidylethanolamine-modified cleavage product of microtubule-associated protein light chain 3 (LC3-II). Cultures treated with > or =10 microM XK469 or SH80 for 5 days could not be induced to divide upon removal of drugs. Such cultures maintained high LC3-II contents, exhibited reduced cyclin E and D1 contents, and extensively expressed senescence-associated beta-galactosidase within 14 to 17 days of cessation of drug treatment. Hence, XK469 and SH80 inhibit cytokinesis, promote polyploidy, and induce senescence in Melan-a cells.
