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
backgroundNowadays the secondary resistance of gefitinib in the treatment of lung adenocarcinoma is an outstanding problem. This research is to explore whether the gefitinib secondary resistance can be induced by gefitinib, to explore whether epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) promotor methylation correlate with the gefitinib-resistance in PC9/GR cell lines and to find a new therapeutic target to overcome the gefitinib secondary resistance in lung adenocarcinoma.
methodsIn vitro cultivation of lung adenocarcinoma PC9 cell lines, apply gefitinib on lung adenocarcinoma PC9 cell lines, and improve drug concentration. MTT for test of gefitinib resistance index in PC9 cell and PC9/GR cell. Bisulfite sequencing polymerase chain reaction (BSP) and Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) for detection of EGFR promoter methylation status and mRNA expression. In vitro cultivation of lung adenocarcinoma PC9 cell lines, apply 1 μmol/L 5-Aza-dc on lung adenocarcinoma PC9/GR cell lines for 72 h. MTT method for test of gefitinib resistance index in PC9/GR cell.
resultsAfter improving the gefitinib concentration, MTT results showed that half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of PC9 cell lines increase from (0.01 ± 0.002) μmol/L to (3.95 ± 0.23) μmol/L (P<0.05). BSP results showed that abnormal methylation sites compared the degree of methylation change: PC9: 59%; PC9/GR: 74% (P<0.05). RT-PCR results showed in PC9/GR cell lines, EGFR mRNA expression quantity increased (P<0.05). After applying 5-Aza-dc on PC9 cell lines, IC50 of PC9/GR decrease from (3.87 ± 0.034) μmol/L to (2.55 ± 0.14) μmol/L.
conclusionsThe PC9 cell line which is induced by improving gefitinib concentration will be resistant to gefitinib, and the gefitinib-resistant cell line PC9/GR could be built. EGFR gene promoter methylation may be one of the mechanisms for the secondary resistance to gefitinib.
