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
introductionZM336372 is small molecule tyrosine kinase modulator. It has been shown to inhibit glycogen synthase kinase-3beta (GSK-3beta) through phosphorylation of GSK-3beta at Ser 9. GSK-3beta has previously been shown to mediate cell survival in pancreatic cancer cells. Here we determine the effects of ZM336372 on GSK-3beta phosphorylation, apoptosis, and growth in pancreatic adenocarcinoma cell lines.
methodsPanc-1 and MiaPaCa-2 cells were treated with ZM336372 or lithium chloride (LiCl) and compared with solvent control. The effects on proliferation for each cell line were determined using the MTT assay. Western blot analysis was performed to examine the effects of treatment on the phosphorylation of GSK-3beta. In addition, western blot was utilized to examine the cleavage of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), a marker of apoptosis.
resultsA dose-dependent increase in phosphorylation of GSK-3beta was observed after treatment with both ZM336372 and LiCl. Growth inhibition due to treatment with ZM336372 and LiCl also occurred in a dose-dependent fashion. An increase in cleaved PARP was demonstrated after treatment with both agents, as was seen previously with GSK-3beta inhibition in pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells.
conclusionThis is the first description of growth inhibition and apoptosis in pancreatic cancer cells related to GSK-3beta inhibition through treatment with ZM336372.
