Relationship between infiltrating lymphocytes in cancerous ascites and dysfunction of Cajal mesenchymal cells in the small intestine.

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
Malignant ascites changes the microenvironment of the peritoneal cavity and damages abdominal functional host cells such as interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC), causing gastrointestinal dysfunction and poor prognosis. Besides tumor cells, malignant ascites contains large numbers of lymphocytes and macrophagocytes. These inflammatory cells act as a 'double arrow' and it is not clear whether they cause injury to ICCs. Our study demonstrates the presence of T lymphocytes in malignant ascites and shows that these cells may have a critical role in inducing damage to ICC via Caspases and Fas/FasL. These inflammatory cells were contributory to gastric dysfunction in our GI tumor-induced ascites mouse models.
