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
Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) is one of the most common salivary gland malignant tumors. Its treatment failure is partly due to the limitations of chemotherapeutic agents and their adverse effects. The objective of this study was to determine the potential additive anti-cancer effect of a novel CDK inhibitor dinaciclib with first-line chemotherapy drugs in ACC. Protein expression of phosphorylated CDK2 (p-CDK2) in paraffin-embedded tissue specimens of ACC from 17 patients was investigated by immunohistochemistry (IHC). Cell Counting Kit (CCK-8), clone formation assay, and flow cytometry were used to test the proliferation and apoptosis of ACC-2 cells treated with dinaciclib with or without other first-line chemotherapy drugs. Protein expression was also determined by Western blot. Interestingly, we discovered that p-CDK2 protein was expressed in both cytoplasmic and nucleus in salivary ACC tissues, which was higher than that in normal salivary tissues, indicating that agents targeting CDK2 may be potential therapeutic strategies against this type of tumor. As expected, CDK inhibitor dinaciclib significantly induced ACC-2 cells apoptosis. Moreover, it sensitized cells to the chemotherapeutic agents such as cisplatin, pemetrexed, and etoposide (VP-16), and this effect by dinaciclib may induce cell cycle arrest via abrogating CDK2 activity. Therefore, combinational therapy of CDK inhibitor dinaciclib with first-line chemotherapy drugs may be a promising strategy in the treatment of salivary ACC.
