Electrochemical, spectroscopic and theoretical monitoring of anthracyclines' interactions with DNA and ascorbic acid by adopting two routes: Cancer cell line studies.
Article in PloS one, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
Pharmacodynamic interactions of three anthracycline antibiotics namely doxorubicin (DXH), epirubicin (EpiDXH) and daunorubicin (DNR) with DNA in the absence and presence of ascorbic acid (AA) as natural additive were monitored under physiological conditions (pH = 7.4, 4.7 and T = 309.5K). Route-1 (Anthracycline-AA-DNA) and Route-2 (Anthracycline-DNA-AA) were adopted to see the interactional behavior by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and UV-visible spectroscopy. In comparison to Route-2; voltammetric and spectral responses as well as binding constant (Kb) and Gibb's free energy change (ΔG) values revealed strongest and more favorable interaction of anthracycline-AA complex with DNA via Route-1. Kb, s (binding site sizes) and ΔG evaluated from experimental (CV, UV-Vis) and theoretical (molecular docking) findings showed enhanced binding strength of tertiary complexes as compared to binary drug-DNA complexes. The results were found comparatively better at pH 7.4. Consistency was observed in binding parameters evaluated from experimental and theoretical techniques. Diffusion coefficients (Do) and heterogeneous electron transfer rate constant (ks,h) confirmed the formation of complexes via slow diffusion kinetics. Percent cell inhibition (%Cinh) of anthracyclines for non-small cell cancer cell lines (NSCCLs) H-1299 and H-157 were evaluated higher in the presence of AA which further complimented experimental and theoretical results.
