1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Poor prognosis in pancreatic cancer (PanCa) is partially due to chemoresistance to gemcitabine (GEM). Glucose metabolism has been revealed to contribute to the therapeutic resistance and pluripotent state of PanCa cells. However, few studies have focused on the effects of GEM on cancer cell metabolism, stemness of tumor cells, and molecular mechanisms that critically influence PanCa treatment. We demonstrate that GEM treatment induces metabolic reprogramming, reducing mitochondrial oxidation and upregulating aerobic glycolysis, and promotes stem-like behaviors in cancer cells. Inhibiting aerobic glycolysis suppresses cancer cell stemness and strengthens GEM's cytotoxicity. GEM-induced metabolic reprogramming is
