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
Vitamin D3 is an essential vitamin that has been extensively studied due to its potential role as therapeutic for many diseases, including breast cancer. Previous research has indicated that calcitriol, the active form of Vitamin D3 has a negative effect on the metastatic ability of Inflammatory Breast Cancer (IBC) cells however the mechanism is not fully understood. The effect of calcitriol on IBC cells starting from cellular uptake must be investigated in order to understand these therapeutic effects. Calcitriol bound Quantum Dots (CalQDs) are a novel nanoparticle conjugated probe that can be used to directly examine the distribution, uptake, and signaling of calcitriol in live cells. Therefore we used these conjugated probes to directly investigate the uptake of calcitriol into live IBC cells. Interestingly, calcitriol uptake was observed to decrease when caveolae mediated endocytosis is disrupted. A luciferase assay confirmed that caveolae function is necessary; since calcitriol mediated activity decreases when caveolae mediated endocytosis is disrupted in IBC cells. In vitro examination of the localization of the probe indicated colocalization between caveolae and CalQDs. Additionally, Vitamin D Receptor (VDR) colocalization was observed with caveolae and calcitriol. This study demonstrates that in IBC cells calcitriol enters cells via caveolae mediated endocytosis and that caveolae are required for calcitriol to be uptaken at the increased rate.
