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
purpose3'-[(18)F]fluoro-3'-deoxythymidine ([(18)F]FLT) is phosphorylated by thymidine kinase 1 (TK-1), a cell cycle regulated enzyme. Appropriate use of [(18)F]FLT tracer requires validation of the TK-1 activity. Here, we report development of a novel phosphoryl-transfer assay to assess phosphorylation of [(18)F]FLT both in tumor cell lysates and tumor cells. PROCEDURES: The intrinsic F-18 radioactivity was used to quantify both substrate and phosphorylated products using a rapid thin layer chromatography method. Phosphorylation kinetics of [(18)F]FLT in SW480 and DiFi tumor cell lysates and cellular uptake were measured.
resultsThe apparent Michaelis-Menten kinetic parameters for [(18)F]FLT are K(m) = 4.8 ± 0.3 μM and V(max) = 7.4 pmol min(-1) per 1 × 10(6) cells with ~2-fold higher TK-1 activity in DiFi versus SW480 lysates.
conclusionsThe apparent K (m) of [(18)F]FLT was comparable to the value reported with purified recombinant TK-1. The uptake of [(18)F]FLT by SW480 cells is inhibited by nitrobenzylthioinosine or dipyridamole indicating that uptake is mediated predominantly by the equilibrative nucleoside transporters in these tumor cells.
