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
backgroundTumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducting ligand (TRAIL) can induce apoptosis of tumor cells, however, various of tumor cells may survive because of resistance to TRAIL-mediated apoptosis. This study is to observe the proliferation inhibition effect of TRAIL sensitized by thioridazine on PC9 cells through endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress mediated up-regulation of death receptor 5 (DR5) and investigate its mechanism.
methodsPC9 cells were treated with different concentrations of thioridazine and TRAIL alone or in combination. Cell proliferation was measured by MTT assay, and cell apoptosis and cell-surface DR5 were detected by flow cytometry. Western blotting was utilized to measure the expressions of ER stress-related proteins glucose regulated protein 78 (GRP78), C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP), p-PKR-like ER kinase (PERK), p-eukaryotic initiation factor-2α (eIF2α), activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4) and apoptosis-related proteins caspase-3, caspase-9, caspase-8, PARP, DR5.
resultsThioridazine inhibited the proliferation of PC9 cells in a dose-dependent manner (P<0.05). Thioridazine increased the inhibition and apoptosis of PC9 cells and up-regulated the expression of cell-surface DR5 induced by TRAIL. Flow cytometry showed that compared with TRAIL group, combination group of TRAIL and thioridazine increased cell apoptotic rates significantly (P<0.05). Western blotting indicated that compared with TRAIL group, expressions of Cleaved-caspase-8, Cleaved-PARP and DR5 increased significantly in combination group of TRAIL and thioridazine. The induction of DR5 and pro-apoptotic effect were mediated through activation of ER stress accompanying by increased synthesis of GRP78 and CHOP, which can be blocked by adding of ER stress inhibitor 4-PBA.
conclusionsThioridazine enhanced proliferation inhibition effect of TRAIL in PC9 cells may be facilitated through ER stress mediated upregulation of DR5. .
