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
Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are immature monocytes and granulocytes that impede immune-mediated clearance of malignant cells by multiple mechanisms, including the formation of immunosuppressive reactive oxygen species (ROS) via the myeloid cell NADPH oxidase (NOX2). Histamine dihydrochloride (HDC), a NOX2 inhibitor, exerts anti-cancer efficacy in experimental tumor models but the detailed mechanisms are insufficiently understood. To determine effects of HDC on the MDSC compartment we utilized three murine cancer models known to entail accumulation of MDSC, i.e. EL-4 lymphoma, MC-38 colorectal carcinoma, and 4T1 mammary carcinoma. In vivo treatment with HDC delayed EL-4 and 4T1 tumor growth and reduced the ROS formation by intratumoral MDSCs. HDC treatment of EL-4 bearing mice also reduced the accumulation of intratumoral MDSCs and reduced MDSC-induced suppression of T cells ex vivo. Experiments using GR1-depleted and Nox2 knock out mice supported that the anti-tumor efficacy of HDC required presence of NOX2
