Celecoxib enhances the anti-inflammatory effects of farnesylthiosalicylic acid on T cells independent of prostaglandin E(2) production.
Article in Inflammation, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Celecoxib (Celebrex(®)), a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug and selective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor, is widely used to treat arthritis and other inflammatory disorders. Awareness of its anti-proliferative properties has prompted another indication for its use, in preventing colon polyps in high-risk populations. Farnesylthiosalicylic acid (FTS; Salirasib(®)), designed to inhibit oncogenic Ras and currently under evaluation in phase I/II and II clinical trials, was recently shown by our group to exert anti-inflammatory effects on both lymphocytes and mast cells. Here we examined whether celecoxib combined with FTS would enhance this anti-inflammatory activity. While each drug separately inhibited Ras activation in these cells, their combination yielded more marked inhibition as well as further inhibition of ERK phosphorylation, lymphocyte adhesion, and interleukin-2 secretion. The inhibitory effects, moreover, were independent of prostaglandin E(2) secretion. These data point to the promising potential of combined treatment with celecoxib and FTS for inflammatory disorders involving lymphocytes.
