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
Previous studies have demonstrated that low-dose endothelial monocyte-activating polypeptide-II (EMAP-II) induces blood-tumor barrier (BTB) opening via RhoA/Rho kinase/PKC-α/β signaling pathway. In a recent study, we revealed that low-dose EMAP-II induced significant increases in expression levels of serine/threonine (Ser/Thr) phosphatase (PP)1 and 2A in rat brain microvascular endothelial cells (RBMECs) of BTB model. In addition, PKC-ζ/PP2A signaling pathway is involved in EMAP-II-induced BTB hyperpermeability. The present study further investigated the exact roles of PPs in this process. In an in vitro BTB model, low-dose EMAP-II (0.05 nM) induced a significant increase in PP1 activity in RBMECs. There was an interaction between PKC-α/β and PP1 in RBMECs. Inhibition of PKC-α/β activity with GÖ6976 completely blocked EMAP-II-induced activation of PP1. Conversely, inhibition of PP1 activity with tautomycin had no effect on EMAP-II-induced PKC-α/β activation. Like GÖ6976, tautomycin significantly prevented EMAP-II-induced BTB hyperpermeability and MLC phosphorylation in RBMECs. Also, in this study, EMAP-II induced a marked redistribution of occludin and a significant dephosphorylation of occludin on Ser/Thr residues in RBMECs. Similar with GÖ6976 pretreatment, tautomycin pretreatment dramatically diminished EMAP-II-induced redistribution of occludin. Furthermore, pretreatment with tautomycin significantly inhibited EMAP-II-induced dephosphorylation of occludin on Ser residues. However, pretreatment with okadaic acid (an inhibitor of PP2A) significantly prevented changes in Ser-phosphorylated occludin induced by EMAP-II treatment. Collectively, this study demonstrates that low-dose EMAP-II increases BTB permeability via a RhoA/Rho kinase/PKC-α/β/PP1 signaling pathway and that PP1/PP2A-mediated Ser/Thr dephosphorylation of occludin plays an important role in EMAP-II-induced BTB hyperpermeability.
