A Novel Synthetic Compound, Bismuth Zinc Citrate, Could Potentially Reduce Cisplatin-Induced Toxicity Without Compromising the Anticancer Effect Through Enhanced Expression of Antioxidant Protein.
Article in Translational oncology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Cisplatin is a common anticancer drug, but it comes with significant nephrotoxicity. Further cisplatin-induced oxidative stress contributes to the pathogenesis of the nephrotoxicity. A new compound, BiZn, can potentially prevent this complication. We verified our postulation by in vitro and in vivo models. From our findings, BiZn did not affect cisplatin-induced cytotoxicity on neuroblastoma cells under both in vitro and in vivo settings. However, BiZn significantly reduced the blood urea nitrogen and creatinine levels in cisplatin-treated mice. Under the lethal dosage of cisplatin, co-treatment of BiZn significantly increased the survival rate. BiZn stimulated antioxidant proteins metallothionein (MT) and glutathione (GSH) generation from kidney cells and minimized cisplatin-induced apoptosis. Knocking down MT-IIA and inhibiting GSH abolished such protection. In conclusion, pretreatment of BiZn decreased cisplatin-induced renal toxicity without affecting its antitumor activity. BiZn-induced antioxidant proteins MT and GSH may contribute to the renal protection effect.
